"A federal judge has weighed in on the $238 million jury verdict won by a former Black United Parcel Service (UPS) worker in September, ruling that $198 million in punitive damages a jury in Yakima, Washington, awarded was unreasonable and not supported by evidence in the case.

U.S. District Judge Thomas Rice allowed the jury’s award for emotional distress to stand, ordering UPS to pay plaintiff Tahvio Gratton $39.6 million.

UPS said it intends to file a motion for a new trial and will seek to overturn the emotional distress damages as well."
