"TOKYO/SAN JOSE (Reuters) - A California jury ordered Toshiba Corp. to pay $84 million in punitive damages to Lexar Media Inc. for stealing trade secrets, taking Lexar's total award in the case to $465 million.
The award was a fraction of the $1 billion or more sought by Lexar, which called the award the biggest intellectual property victory ever in California courts. The total damages also dwarfed Lexar's market value of $251 million as of Wednesday's close. "
