I hope his appeal succeeds and the female judge's prohibition of punitive damages is set aside. IMHO, the woman in this case is more culpible than the Company.

I agree Frank. She should be arrested, tried and, if convicted, sentenced to several decades hard time. Unfortunately, her actions may have been perfectly legal.
About five years ago in Colorado, a bill went before the legislature to make such false accusation illegal. Feminists organizations managed to get it defeated. One of the legislators who led the fight to squash the bill said after its defeat that it would have been a bad law because it would have had a "chilling effect" on women who have been assaulted and might not come forward if the law were on the books.
How can we blame them? Destroying the lives of perfectly innocent men may not always be the best thing in the world, but we don't want the little darlings to get a chill, now do we?

"The jury also found that the woman had defamed the man by making false accusations, but awarded him no money on that claim."
Why not? It is bad enough she doesn't have to go to jail for destroying his life, and now it seems she doesn't have to cough up any punitive damages, either.
But even if she did pay, how much is a man's reputation worth?
Disgusting. fritzc77
