The fight isn’t over just yet, fortunately. Fairooz and her attorney are working on next steps to counter this outrageousness:
Ms. Fairooz, 61, of Bluemont, Va., said she was “really disappointed.” She said her lawyer, Samuel A. Bogash, would file post-trial motions seeking to set the verdict aside. She said it was too early to discuss an appeal.
“We’ll face that music when we get to that,” Ms. Fairooz said. She added that she was undeterred and would continue to protest.
