I did not mention the dollar amount precisely because my emphasis is on the legal significance of the award, not the dollar amount! (It was the other poster who thinks that is so important).

The dollar amount IS important. It indicates what the jury believed to be the relative causalities of the situation being litigated.

From reading http://www.thomasmore.org/index.cfm?location=5&subsectionid=1&release=152&pageid=1
it appears that this gentleman received a confidential sum in settlement.
From the release: "Damages of an unspecified amount were paid directly to Goodman, and the Thomas More Law Center was awarded costs."
