For example:
Rosemary Aquavia, a secretary for the mayor of Naugatuck, Conn., was
reprimanded by her supervisor for personal use of a borough fax machine.
She filed a federal lawsuit against the town for violating her First
Amendment right to free speech. A jury of her peers agreed, and awarded
her one cent in damages. In a post-trial motion, Aquavia appealed to U.S.
District Court Judge Janet Arterton to increase her damages -- to one
dollar. The judge turned down the appeal.
