MEMORANDUM & ORDER re: 129 Motion for New Trial, Judgment as a Matter of Law, and Remittitur. For the reasons discussed herein, Defendants' motions for judgment as a matter of law and for a new trial as to liability are denied. Defendants� 39; motion for remittitur is granted. Because both the compensatory and punitive awards are so excessive as to shock the judicial conscience, the Court grants a new trial unless Plaintiff accepts a remittitur of the award of compensatory damages fro m $500,000 to $115,000, the award of punitive damages against Defendant Yurkiw from $1,000,000 to $120,000, and the awards of punitive damages against Defendants LaGrandier and Solomito from $750,000 to $10,000 each. Pl aintiff's attorneys shall, by November 21, 2018, file with the Clerk of Court written notice of whether Plaintiff will accept the remitted awards. If Plaintiff elects a new trial, the Court will schedule a conference to set a trial date. Ordered by Magistrate Judge Steven M. Gold on 10/31/2018. (Farmer, John)
