Fast food worth a stop: America's best regional chains. Some are big and some are tiny, but all are worth trying for their unique spin on road food.
Compensatory damages are meant to offset an injury sustained by an individual. âActualâ damages are those which reimburse an individual for out-of-pocket expenses. These include monetary awards for medical expenses, property damage, and loss of income.
In general, the amount of punitive damages cannot exceed four times the amount of compensatory damages that are awarded to a plaintiff. For instance, if a plaintiff is awarded $50,000 in compensatory damages, the court would not typically award him more than $200,000 in punitive damages, unless special circumstances existed.
