Now, Geever has been ordered to pay Sarhadi $1.9 million, having been found liable by default for failing to respond to the allegations or appear in court. The verdict was handed down last Tuesday. Judge Brenda K. Sannes granted Sarhadi $1,170,800 in damages, with a further $750,000 awarded for punitive damages. However, Judge Sannes denied Sarhadi’s claim of intentional infliction of emotional distress.
