Abstract: Let $C$ be a curve of genus $ggeqslant2$ defined over the fraction field $K$ of a complete discrete valuation ring $R$ with algebraically closed residue field. Suppose that $char(K)=0$ and that the characteristic of the residue field is not 2. Suppose that the Jacobian $Jac(C)$ has semi-stable reduction over $R$. Embed $C$ in $Jac(C)$ using a $K$-rational point. We show that the coordinates of the torsion points lying on $C$ lie in the unique moderately ramified quadratic extension of the field generated over $K$ by the coordinates of the $p$-torsion points on $Jac(C)$.
