The opinion of the court was delivered by This is an action brought by Thomas E. Butler against Westgate State Bank for damages arising out of breach of an alleged contract to make a loan. At trial, a jury awarded Butler $47,600, $40,000 of which was specified for lost profits. In response to the bank's post-trial motion, the trial court set aside the jury's award of $40,000, allowing the $7,600 judgment for plaintiff's out of pocket expenses. Plaintiff appealed to the Court of Appeals from the trial court's elimination of the $40,000. Defendant cross-appealed from the judgment for $7,600. The Court of Appeals reinstated the award for lost profits, relying upon this court's decision in Vickers v. Wichita State University, 213 Kan. 614, 518 P.2d 512 (1974). The court, however, found Butler was not entitled to the $7,600. Butler v. Westgate State Bank, 3 Kan. App. 2d 403, 596 P.2d 156 (1979).
