7. We just finished
Basically everyone agreed that the person did have SOME real damages but was requesting an inflated amount based on some flimsy evidence, so it was just a question of hashing out every individual thing he claimed and adjusting it depending on the evidence the provided. He got about 1/5 what he asked for. I really think everyone was trying to be very fair to both parties and follow the judge's guidelines on what the burden of proof was for each thing.

It was nice that nobody just said "oh lets just say X and we can all go home." I mean not one person, everybody wanted to really get it right, it was very affirming!
