In a case involving fraud, where I feel punitive damages would be awarded, when filing your claim, I would not think that you would include these punitive damages in your amount sought. My question, how do you request these punitive damages as the plaintiff? And since the amount is really up to the judge, in requesting would you even suggest an amount? If so, how would one determine a price?

Thanks.
