A New York appeals court upheld a $540,000 award to Samuel L. Jackson, who sued the New York Transit Authority after he was dragged by a subway train in 1988.
The star of "Pulp Fiction" suffered a severe knee injury when he got his leg caught in the train's door and the motorman began pulling out of the station.His lawyer, Brian Isaac, said Jackson required surgery and intensive physical therapy to regain use of his leg.
Jackson's latest film, "The Great White Hype," opened last week.
