One point that seemed to be pushed aside here is the amount of damages awarded in the first trial. A few people said "Yeah, thats too much" but you have to realize that when you deal with a huge entity like First State Bank it takes alot to make them hurt. Thats why you have people who sue McDonalds for having too hot of coffee or for making them fat and getting a million or more dollars. Anything less isn't even a slap on the wrist for a company that does business in the hundreds of millions or billions of dollars.
