Right of courts to reduce verdicts challenges jury power
The piece argues that while courts may reduce verdicts to curb passion or prejudice, they must not override the jury’s function. It cites that verdict amount is the essence of the verdict and questions why appellate courts protect opponents’ rights while denying the litigant’s. Noting exceptions like Justice James A. O Gorman’s review, it emphasizes perception of fairness and moral shock when verdicts are misaligned with damages. It ends with a comic aside about Socrates versus a Greek coffee house, and a line about a mood of a typewriter.
