Judge Quadrupled Jury Award

Posted by Editor | Posted in Personal Injury Cases in the News

A Connecticut judge just quadrupled a jury award to a developer who said he was shut out of a building project due to corruption in the city of Bridgeport.

The judge added punitive damages, attorney fees and legal costs to the June jury verdict. The total award now amounts to $1.4 million owed to the man’s development company.

The man claimed his development plans were axed due to corruption in Bridgeport City Hall under former Mayor Joe Ganim’s administration. Ganim is currently in prison after being conviction on corruption charges and he must pay part of the jury award.

Corruption is a form of Intentional Injury. If you believe that you’ve been intentionally injured, consider talking to a personal injury lawyer today.
