Lawyer Case History

Thitchener v. Countrywide Home Loans, 192 P.3d 243 (Nev. 2008) (en banc).

After finding in favor of the Thitcheners, the jury awarded them $922,690.00 in compensatory damages. The jury also concluded that there was clear and convincing evidence demonstrating that Countrywide “acted with conscious disregard,” “malice, express or implied,” or “oppression” sufficient to award the Thitcheners $2,500,000.00 in punitive damages during the second phase of trial. So, after adding in prejudgment interest to the compensatory components, and adding in awards for attorney fees and costs, the total Judgment awarded was $4,577,088.80.

The matter was appealed to the Nevada Supreme Court. The Judgment was subsequently reduced to $2,021,726.36 which included the punitive damages of $968,070.
