Punitive damages are rarely awarded in lawsuits, unless the defendant engages in fraudulent, malicious behavior. Without reading the complaint, I cannot comment on the tax return issue.

I am being sued for puntive damages involving a flip property. The basic lawsuit is bogus but they want us to produce tax returns. If the punitive damage portion is dropped then the tax return issue is eliminated. What is a good way to get the punitive damages dropped from the suit?
