Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding. The answer is that, every time somebody with damages proves his or her case in front of a jury, the jury has the discretion to award whatever they think is proper damages. For example, if they accept some of the damages and reject other parts of the damages, they don't award the full amount, and that is the kind of discretion a Federal judge should retain.
