               WNIC filed a suit against petitioner and FBC in Federal                
          District Court for the District of Utah (the District Court).  In           
          turn, petitioner and FBC filed a suit against WNIC and Washington           
          National Financial Services (WNFS), a related corporation, in the           
          District Court.  For convenience and clarity, WNIC and WNFS will            
          be collectively referred to as WNIC.  In the breach of contract             
          suit filed by petitioner and FBC against WNIC, tort and tort type           
          claims were alleged.  In response to WNIC's Motion in Limine, the           
          District Court limited the presentation in the trial to breach of           
          contract, as explained below.  The two cases were consolidated              
          for trial (the District Court Case).                                        
               The jury instructions (Jury Instructions) in the District              
          Court Case stated that petitioner was suing WNIC for wrongful               
          termination of his general agency contract.  The jury (the Jury)            
          executed a special verdict form.  The Jury found that "just                 
          cause" did not exist for the termination of the Contract and                
          awarded damages to petitioner in the amount of $159,238 (the Jury           
          Award).  The amount of the Jury Award was the amount that an                
          economist who testified in the District Court Case calculated               
          that petitioner would have earned as commissions under the                  
          Contract had the Contract not been terminated by WNIC.                      
               The Judgment does not make any reference to an award based             
          on a tort or tort type claim.  Aside from the $159,238, the                 
          Judgment awarded only amounts of commissions plus interest to
