Reply to comment by Emotional-Text7904 in Virginia judge decreases punitive damages owed by Unite the Right organizers from $24 million to $350,000 by WhoIsJolyonWest
Put in place by a total asshole who would not be where he is today and still benefits from a judgement from before those limits were put into place.

>A Virginia state law limits the total amount awarded for punitive damages to $350,000 per case, but the law does not allow the jury to be advised of the punitive damages cap. Instead, in cases where a jury awards more than the $350,000 in punitive damages, the law requires judges to reduce the award to the maximum.
Possibly the dumbest thing ever....
Law: Hey jury, you get to pick a punitive number...
Jury: Something over 350K
Law: Psych! Can't do that! Haha.
Why not just tell them the max amount upfront and save everyone's time and money?

What could possibly go wrong....
Does the same judge also sentence back robbers to work as bank tellers?

Shit, I knew someone at University of Houston that lived for almost a whole school year in an unused dorm room. Just moved in after hanging with a friend and they realized it was unused. Started with just a night crashing and then a week later it was their room. RA never gave a damn I guess.
Just remembered another who did something similar for a few months but had to hide it from the RA. Would sneak in and never turn the lights on and be as quite as she could.
