These give observation number, blood id number,age, date, and four blood measurements.

Supp. 640 (E.D.N.Y. 1997)), Judge Weinstein presented an innovative method for determining remittiturs. A remittitur is a ruling from a judge, in response to the motion of a defendant found liable, such that the plaintiff can choose between reducing the amount granted by a the jury for indemnification or a new trial. This ruling is valid when the amount granted by the jury is unreasonable.

In order to define what is unreasonable compensation, Judge Weinstein collected a pool of 86 cases in which there were awards for pain and suffering, Next, he decided if the damage dealt to each of the 3 plaintiffs was comparable to that on each case in the pool. This database is composed by Judge Weinstein's decision on comparability and information about the 86 cases in the pool." The zip archive contains the following files:
