FRESNO, Calif. -- A California appeals court threw out a $1.5 million
jury award to a woman who was spanked in front of co-workers.
Her employer had called it a camaraderie-building exercise.
In setting aside the judgment in her favor, a three-member court
panel said the jurors were given improper instructions.
Janet Orlando claimed she was sexually harassed by an Anaheim-based
alarm company during the team-building exercise where she was paddled
with yard signs from rival companies.
The firm has since done away with the practice.
Orlando's attorney has vowed to take the case to trial again.
But a lawyer for the company said it is bankrupt, and there might not
be much money left to recover.
