SANTA MONICA: Now that the Simpson jury has delivered its verdict, the endless courtroom miniseries moves to appeals of both the civil case and his child-custody decision. Up next: How much should he pay? Jurors will reconvene on Thursday for a punitive damages hearing where plaintiff witnesses will testify how much Simpson is worth and, subject to the judge's approval, how much he could be worth in the future.

Simpson was guilty of killing his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. But the former football star never lost his cool. Asked by plaintiffs' attorney Daniel Petrocelli, who did the bulk of the interrogating, if he had an explanation for how the blood of his ex-wife and Goldman might have ended up in his Bronco, Simpson...
