REPLEVIN DAMAGES — WHERE THE PROPERTY CANNOT BE RETURNED TO THE PLAINTIFF
If you find that the property cannot be returned to the plaintiff, then you shall
award the plaintiff damages in the amount of the market value of the property on the date
that the defendant took possession.
In addition, you shall award interest on that market value from the time the
property was taken or wrongfully kept until the date of your verdict, computed as follows:
(In the amount of the legal rate of interest of eight percent on the market value of
the property on the date that the defendant took possession, compounded annually and
computed until the date of your verdict) (or) (In an amount proven by the evidence at trial
which fully recognizes the gain or benefit realized by the defendant who wrongfully took or
kept the property).
