“In consideration of the evidence of financial condition of the defendants,
       the extreme reprehensibility of their conduct and the extent of the harm inflicted
       on plaintiff, punitive damages are awarded in the amount of $350,000.”
       Post-Punitive Damages Trial Motions
       Singh moved to modify the ruling, in part alleging that Rawat was never served.
In reply, Fernandes in part relied on a proof of service on Rawat, the answer filed by
Oliver on behalf of “Defendants,” and Rawat’s verified response to standard
interrogatories.
       The trial court denied Singh’s motion on May 22, 2015, and filed a formal
judgment on that same day, awarding Fernandes $87,894 in compensatory damages and
$350,000 in punitive damages, plus costs, prejudgment interest, and attorney fees. 5
       Singh filed another motion, confusingly captioned and structured, but in essence
seeking to change the judgment. This was later denied.
