Professor Ian Ayres continues his Yale Coursera course American Contract Law with a lecture on remedies, focusing on mental anguish and punitive damages. He works through Bohac v. Department of Agriculture, a whistleblower damages case, using it to examine when courts allow recovery beyond ordinary compensatory damages for breach. Ayres walks through the reasoning courts apply to decide whether emotional distress or punitive awards are appropriate in contract disputes, tying the case back to the broader doctrinal framework built across the course. The lecture is short and pointed, part of a numbered sequence (lecture 77) within the remedies unit, and assumes familiarity with prior sessions on breach and damages. It is aimed at students following the full course rather than general viewers, but stands on its own as a focused doctrinal explanation of punitive damages in contract law.
