What damages can I recover in a lawsuit?

Depending on the case, you may recover compensatory damages (for actual loss), pain and suffering, and in some egregious cases, punitive damages designed to punish the wrongdoer.

A conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 666 carries up to 10 years in federal prison. Individuals generally face a maximum fine of $250,000, although the alternative fine rules permit a higher amount based on twice the gross gain or loss. Sentencing depends on the facts, including the loss amount, role in the offense, and abuse of trust. Related convictions increase potential exposure.
