Injuries are discussed only in the most general terms, if at all, and the periods of time that the damage award is intended to recompense is almost never mentioned. In short, the factual information which would provide some precedential value for future cases is almost invariably lacking. This can be exceedingly frustrating to those of us who are confronted with "damage award" issues on a regular basis. 2, record 1, English, - damage%20award
