ICTSI Portland on Friday declined to accept a judge’s reduced award of $19 million for damages to be paid by the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) for ILWU work stoppages and slowdowns from 2012 to 2017, so now a new trial will be held. On March 5th, a Judge reduced the amount from $93.6 million that a jury awarded to ICTSI after a two-week trial in November 2019. The new trial will be limited to determining the amount of the award, though it is uncertain when the trial will be held as the judicial schedule in Portland has been interrupted by COVID-19.
