Donald W. Cook and the law partnership Mann & Cook appeal from the judgment in a malicious prosecution case awarding damages to respondent Joseph Callanan. The trial court found that appellants brought a cause of action for a civil conspiracy in a prior lawsuit against respondent without probable cause and with malice. We agree with the court’s legal conclusion that appellants’ conspiracy claim lacked probable cause. We find substantial support in the record for the conclusion that the conspiracy claim was brought with malice. We reject appellants’ challenge to the damage award and affirm the judgment.
