Punitive or Compensatory Awards
In civil lawsuits, compensatory awards aim to financially restore the injured party for losses, like medical expenses and lost wages. They aim to return the victim to their pre-harm position. Punitive awards, on the other hand, are to punish wrongdoers and discourage similar behavior. They are not always given, usually reserved for particularly egregious actions. Both awards aim for justice by compensating the injured and deterring wrongful behavior.
