Judge Marla Miller of San Francisco Superior Court said Friday she's inclined to boost
a jury's damages award against the
Weekly from $6.3 million to $15.6 million, the
San Francisco Chronicle reports. Miller, in what she described as a tentative decision, said she would triple the portion of the damages that equals one year of losses, bringing the total to $15.6 million. She also said she'll likely issue an injunction barring the
Weekly from continuing to sell ads below cost. She is expected to make a final ruling this week. The
Weekly says it will appeal. Read more from
