515	66	XVII. Factual insufficiency — $3M exemplary damages (Q19)	Non-unanimous Q17 and insufficient malice evidence make exemplary damages improper. TUTSA caps exemplary at twice actual loss (§ 134A.004) — if attorney fees excluded, maximum is $500,000. Exemplary damages factors all favor Kassab: economic harm only, questionable culpability (Kassab didn't know information belonged to Pohl), Kassab was promoting justice by exposing barratry, no net worth evidence presented. Award was against great weight of evidence, probably based on passion/prejudice.
