The jury awarded Jenkens and Gilchrist $3.14 million in damages, $1.15M in attorney’s fees and approximately $.3M in interest.

 

“Although we respect the jury’s verdict, we are very disappointed in the results of the trial and are currently looking at all of our available options, including an appeal,” said Nancy Harris, Chief Executive Office at Asure.
