I want you to imagine that you run a litigation finance company. Congratulations on your new job! Your business invests in civil litigation, helping finance the cost of litigation for parties who stand to obtain big verdicts or settlements but need investors to help get them get there.

I want you to identify an ongoing civil lawsuit that you think your company should invest in.You're not making a movie or writing a book about this litigation, you're a capitalist looking to make money. Make sure you read How Much is a Civil Lawsuit Worth? carefully so you know what you're looking for: multi-million dollar damages, legal liability, and ability to pay.

Because civil litigation doesn't get in the news as much as criminal trials do, the requirements are a little broader than they were in the discussion two weeks ago. The case you pick doesn't have to be in trial right now, but a complaint must have been filed and no verdict or settlement reached yet. (Don't write about a litigation that's already happened or one that hasn't even started yet).

• Who the parties are,
• Why the litigation is likely to produce a massive verdict or settlement (be specific),
• Where the litigation is taking place, include court, attorney, and judge info, if possible,
• A link to a news story about the case, preferably a new story with multimedia and links to further information. The media story must be about the trial that's happening right now; that's what makes it a high profile trial.
