Procedural Posture

This document is an Order issued by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, presided over by Chief Judge James E.

As a result of this dispositive ruling, the Court awarded the Petitioner the principal sum of $111,493,828.92. Additionally, the Court mandated that post-judgment interest shall accrue on the awarded sum in strict accordance with the federal statutory framework provided under 28 U.S.C. § 1961.
