Arum: Floyd Finally Shows Up To Pacquiao Deposition

[sdcluser]

Again, you're talking out of your ass. Look up the difference between compensatory vs punitive damges. Then note that Nevada has no cap on punitive damage awards in defamation cases.

Prince. Tell me what kind of punitive damage has this allegation has caused Pac? Pac is getting commercials deals left and right. What compensation/punitive damage would you place Floyd's PED allegation?

See, this is why I said look up the difference between compensatory and punitive damages. Then you'd understand how hilarious your post is.

Prince. He is gonna looked like a fool. Tell me what compensatory and punitive damages would be levied on Floyd? Not potential. Realistically? Has Pacquaio realistically been damaged by this financially? $10 million either punitive or compensatory damages? Come on now.

Just read the guaranteed purses for Manny and JMM are 6 million and 5 million, respectively.

Jesus Christ... how hard is it to type in 'punitive damages' or 'compensatory damages' into google? Even a simple wiki search gives you this...

Compensatory damages, called actual damages, are paid to compensate the claimant for loss, injury, or harm suffered as a result of (see requirement of causation) another's breach of duty.

...

Generally, punitive damages, which are also termed exemplary damages in the United Kingdom, are not awarded in order to compensate the plaintiff, but in order to reform or deter the defendant and similar persons from pursuing a course of action such as that which damaged the plaintiff.

Do you get it now? Punitive damages are not awarded because of financial damage done to someone, that's compensatory, so in order to receive punitive damages, Pacquiao doesn't have to prove he lost money or was affected financially. All he has to prove is that Floyd defamed him. Defamation (slander and libel) being part of the tort law covered by punitive damages.

As for what can Manny expect, I can't say but if we look at other examples of defamation trials ending with the defendant being forced to pay punitive damages...

Jury awards $11.3 million in Florida Internet defamation case

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) -- A jury has awarded $11.3 million in damages to the head of a children's services referral company, after she was called a "con artist" and "fraud" in Internet messages posted by a Louisiana woman.

The award on Sept. 19 for Sue Scheff of suburban Weston, founder of Parent's Universal Resource Experts Inc., is among the largest ever for a lawsuit claiming Internet defamation, according to legal analysts and attorneys involved in the case.

"Just because you don't like someone or what they do, it does not give you carte blanche to post false statements about a person on the Internet," Scheff said this week.

The $11.3 million judgment, which includes $5 million in punitive damages, was awarded Sept. 19 for Scheff in her 2003 lawsuit against Carey Bock, of Mandeville, La. Bock, who did not show up for the trial, had posted the negative messages on an Internet site used by parents with troubled children at boarding schools.

Defamation Case Finally Settled -
ADL Pays Out $12.1 million

The Quigleys have collected.

The Anti-Defamation League's payment of more than $12 million for defaming them has been transferred to their bank, according to a Thursday press release from their lawyer, Jay Horowitz of Denver.

Bruce DeBoskey, director of the ADL's Mountain States region, did not return a telephone call seeking comment.

The money went to the former Evergreen couple more than nine years after ADL officials in Colorado denounced the Quigleys as anti-Semites, based on illegally recorded secret interceptions of the Quigleys' telephone conversations.

William and Dorothy "Dee" Quigley had feuded with their ***ish neighbors, Mitchell and Candice Aronson. The Aronsons contacted the ADL in 1994 after listening to the Quigleys' phone conversations on a Radio Shack police scanner.

Just a few legal precedents where defamation cases resulted in the defendant(s) having to fork over $10+ million.

Big ****ing deal. Each case varies. You still didn't answer my question. How much do you think realistically would Pac get out of this? Has Pacquiao been seriously damaged to warrant such a settlement for $10 million? This ain't gonna go to a jury sorry to tell you. It just ain't worth that much.

[daggum]

if if was the judge i would be fair and just give all of floyd's money to pac.
