[edit] Question left on article

24.174.164.83 left this on the article page. This is very unclear. Do treble damages include the actual damages, or are they in addition to actual damages? If someone has actual damages of $100, are treble damages $300 or are they $400 (actual damagages of $100 plus treble damages of $300)?? --Nucleusboy (talk) 01:57, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

$100 would be trebled to $300. I'll see if I can find a source. bd2412 T 03:07, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
