                  LIABILITY AND AN AWARD OF PUNITIVE DAMAGES;

                                      I. INTRODUCTION

       In 1983 and 1984, two terrorist attacks targeted American servicemembers and embassy

employees stationed in Beirut, Lebanon. This Court, along with other courts in this Circuit, has

contended with the tragic impact of these bombings in a number of mass tort lawsuits brought

under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (“FSIA”). See, e.g., Barry v. Islamic Republic of

Iran (“Barry I”), 410 F. Supp. 3d 161 (D.D.C. 2019); Barry v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Barry

II”), 437 F. Supp. 3d 15 (D.D.C. 2020). 1 Presently before the Court are the claims of over three

hundred individuals who were either injured—in some cases fatally—in these attacks while

members of the armed forces or acting in their capacity as a U.S. government employee or

contractor, or who are the immediate family members of such directly injured individuals.

       1
          Given the similarities between Barry II and this case, this opinion draws heavily from
the Court’s opinion in Barry II without sentence-by-sentence citation. See Special Master’s
Proposed Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law (“R. & R.”), ¶ 3, ECF No. 34 (“Barry [II] and
this case . . . involve identical underlying facts and circumstances and similar injuries . . . .”).
Defendant Iran has not entered an appearance in the more than two years since the suit was filed.

This Court must now decide whether to enter default judgment concerning liability, whether to

adopt the Special Master’s Report and Recommendation regarding compensatory damages, and

whether to award punitive damages to Plaintiffs. As set forth below, the Court finds that all

Plaintiffs but two have established liability and will enter default judgment concerning these

individuals; adopts in part the Special Master’s suggested damages awards; and awards punitive

damages in part.

                                      II. BACKGROUND

                                       A. Factual History

       The directly injured Plaintiffs were injured in the 1983 terrorist attack on the U.S.

Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon, and/or the attack on the U.S. Embassy Annex in East Beirut the

following year. 2 Compl. ¶¶ 1, 7, ECF No. 4. The bombing of the U.S. Embassy on April 18,

       2
         As this Court explained in Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 168 n.1, and Barry II, 437 F.
Supp. 3d at 26 n.5, the Federal Rules of Evidence authorize a court to take judicial notice of
“adjudicative facts” “not subject to reasonable dispute” that are “capable of accurate and ready
determination by resort to sources whose accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned,” Fed. R.
Evid. 201(b), including “court records in related proceedings,” Rimkus v. Islamic Republic of
Iran, 750 F. Supp. 2d 163, 171 (D.D.C. 2010) (citing 29 Am. Jur. 2d Evidence § 151 (2010));
Booth v. Fletcher, 101 F.2d 676, 679 n.2 (D.C. Cir. 1938); 2 McCormick on Evidence § 332 (6th
ed. 2009)). Because of the number of individuals affected by terrorist attacks, and the associated
“flood of cases that they generate,” courts in this Circuit resolving FSIA cases have “regularly”
taken judicial notice of the record in related cases. Goldstein v. Islamic Republic of Iran, No. 16-
CV-2507 (CRC), 2018 WL 6329452, at *2 (D.D.C. Dec. 4, 2018) (citing Rimkus, 750 F. Supp.
2d at 171); see also Murphy v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 740 F. Supp. 2d 51, 58–59 (D.D.C.
2010); Brewer v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 664 F. Supp. 2d 43, 47 (D.D.C. 2009); Estate of
Heiser v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Heiser I”), 466 F. Supp. 2d 229, 262–63 (D.D.C. 2006).
Significantly, “courts have taken notice of facts found in earlier proceedings in this District even
when those proceedings have taken place in front of a different judge.” Foley v. Syrian Arab
Republic, 249 F. Supp. 3d 186, 191 (D.D.C. 2017) (citing Brewer, 664 F. Supp. 2d at 54).
       Other courts in this Circuit have resolved numerous cases arising out of the 1983 and
1984 bombings in Beirut, Lebanon. See, e.g., Brewer, 664 F. Supp. 2d at 46 (suit involving
survivor of 1984 Annex bombing); Wagner v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 172 F. Supp. 2d 128,
130–33 (D.D.C. 2001) (suit on behalf of individual killed in 1984 Annex bombing); Estate of

                                                 2
1983, “was the first large-scale attack against a United States Embassy anywhere in the world.”

Dammarell v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Dammarell I”), 281 F. Supp. 2d 105, 111 (D.D.C.

2003). At just past 1:00 p.m. on that date, a vehicle “laden with hundreds of pounds of

explosives” was driven into the main entrance of the Embassy, whereupon it “exploded with a

force so powerful that seven floors in the center section of the crescent-shaped building

collapsed.” Id.; see also Salazar v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 370 F. Supp. 2d 105 (D.D.C. 2005)

(taking judicial notice of the Dammarell court’s factual findings regarding the 1983 attack). As a

result of this attack, over sixty individuals were fatally wounded and over one hundred others

were injured. Dammarell I, 281 F. Supp. 2d at 111.

       After the 1983 attack, the operations of the U.S. embassy were transferred to the

Embassy Annex, located in a different part of the city that was believed to be safer. See Estate of

Doe I, 808 F. Supp. 2d at 7. But tragedy struck once more on September 20, 1984. That

morning, the driver of a vehicle loaded with explosives evaded the concrete barriers put up as

protection, ignored orders to halt, and detonated a bomb estimated to contain approximately

1500 kilograms of explosives. See Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 169 (citing Brewer v. Islamic

Republic of Iran, 664 F. Supp. 2d 43, 47 (D.D.C. 2009); Wagner v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 172

F. Supp. 2d 128, 132 (D.D.C. 2001)). The explosion, which “demolished the embassy building,”

Doe v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Estate of Doe I”), 808 F. Supp. 2d 1, 7 (D.D.C. 2011) (suit by
family members and individuals killed or injured in 1983 or 1984 attacks); Dammarell v. Islamic
Republic of Iran (“Dammarell I”), 281 F. Supp. 2d 105, 108–113 (D.D.C. 2003) (suit involving
over eighty survivors of 1983 Embassy attack). In resolving these and other prior suits, courts in
this Circuit have offered detailed factual reporting of the attacks. Thus, in this section and
throughout this opinion, the Court takes judicial notice of these and related cases to draw its own,
independent findings of fact in the instant case. See Rimkus, 750 F. Supp. 2d at 172 (“[C]ourts in
FSIA litigation” may, in resolving “subsequent related cases,” properly “rely upon the evidence
presented in earlier litigation—without necessitating the formality of having that evidence
reproduced—to reach their own, independent findings of fact in the cases before them.” (citing
Murphy, 740 F. Supp. 2d at 58–59)).

                                                 3
Wagner, 172 F. Supp. 2d at 132, killed over ten individuals and injured over fifty others, see

Estate of Doe I, 808 F. Supp. 2d at 8.

        The directly injured Plaintiffs were among those struck by one or both attacks. Their

hundreds of immediate family members have contended with the ongoing pain of the bombings

for over four decades. Based on Plaintiffs’ filings, it is clear that these acts of terror deeply

affected these individuals’ lives.

                                       B. Procedural History

        This case was filed by several individuals who were working at the Embassy or Embassy

Annex at the time of the bombings, as well as hundreds of their immediate family members.

Compl. ¶ 1. Plaintiffs fall into two categories.

        The first category—the “directly injured” Plaintiffs—consists of individuals who were

employed by, or performing contracts awarded by, the U.S. government, or members of the

armed services serving at the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, at the time of the 1983 and/or 1984

bombings of the U.S. Embassy and U.S. Embassy Annex in Beirut, Lebanon, who were injured

or killed as a result of those attacks, or the estates of such individuals. Mem. P. & A. Supp. Pls.’

Mot. Default J. on Liability and an Award of Punitive Damages (“Pls.’ Mot.”) at 1–2, ECF No.

29-1. The second category—the “family member” Plaintiffs—consists of “[i]mmediate family

members of those employee/contractor or armed forces victims who suffered severe emotional

distress as a result of the attacks on their loved ones.” Id. at 2.

        Plaintiffs present several theories of relief. First, Plaintiffs who are U.S. nationals and

U.S. Government employees or contractors seek compensatory damages pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §

1605A(c)’s private cause of action, Compl. ¶¶ 434–40, and, in addition, the personal

representatives of those who were fatally injured in one of the attacks seek damages for wrongful

                                                   4
death, id. ¶¶ 447–51. Second, all Plaintiffs, including both the directly injured Plaintiffs and the

family member Plaintiffs, seek compensatory damages for intentional infliction of emotional

distress (“IIED”), id. ¶¶ 441–45, and the family member Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages

for solatium and/or loss of consortium due to the “extreme mental anguish, emotional pain and

suffering, and the loss of the society and companionship of the victims,” id. ¶¶ 452–56. 3 Finally,

all Plaintiffs seek punitive damages pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1605A. Id. ¶¶ 457–60.

       Given the number of individuals involved and their location across multiple continents,

counsel for Plaintiffs moved for adoption of an administrative plan wherein an appointed special

master would “submit a Report & Recommendation to the Court containing findings of fact and

conclusions of law regarding compensatory damages as to each of the Plaintiffs’ claims.” Mem.

Supp. Mot. Adoption Admin. Plan. at 8, ECF No. 15-1. The Court granted this motion, see

Order on Mot. Adoption Admin. Plan, ECF No. 18, and Special Master Paul Griffin’s sealed

report was filed on November 16, 2023, see Special Master’s Proposed Findings of Fact &

Conclusions of Law (“R. & R.”), ECF No. 34. Plaintiffs have also filed a motion requesting the

substitution of certain legal representatives, ECF No. 20, a motion seeking default judgment on

liability and an award of punitive damages, ECF No. 29, and a motion to adopt the Special

Master’s Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 35. Defendant Iran continues to decline to

participate in this suit, and Plaintiffs’ pending motions have ripened.

                                  *               *              *

       The questions facing the Court are whether it should, as a matter of law, enter default

judgment on Plaintiffs’ claims regarding liability, whether it should adopt the Special Master’s

       3
         Technically, these plaintiffs seek damages for “loss of solatium,” Compl. at 164, but the
Court follows the language of section 1605A and uses the term “solatium.” See 28 U.S.C.
1605A(c).

                                                  5
Report and Recommendation on compensatory damages, and whether it should award Plaintiffs

punitive damages. For the reasons set forth below, the Court grants in part default judgment

concerning liability, adopts in part the damages recommendations in the Special Master’s report,

and awards in part Plaintiffs’ request for punitive damages.

                                    III. LEGAL STANDARD

                                      A. Default Judgment

       As this Court previously detailed in Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 170–71, and Barry II, 437

F. Supp. 3d at 28, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55 sets forth a two-step process for a party

seeking default judgment: entry of default, followed by entry of default judgment. Fed. R. Civ.

P. 55; see also Int’l Painters & Allied Trades Indust. Pension Fund v. Rose City Glass Co., 729

F. Supp. 2d 336, 338 n.3 (D.D.C. 2010) (citing Fed. R. Civ. P. 55; Eitel v. McCool, 782 F.2d

1470, 1471 (9th Cir. 1986); Meehan v. Snow, 652 F.2d 274, 276 (2d Cir. 1981)). First, after a

defendant has failed to plead or otherwise defend against an action, the plaintiff may request that

the clerk of the court enter default against that defendant. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a). Second,

following the clerk’s entry of default, and where the plaintiff’s claim is not for a sum certain,

Rule 55(b)(2) permits the plaintiff to apply to the court for entry of default judgment. Fed. R.

Civ. P. 55(b)(2). By providing for a two-step process, Rule 55 provides the defendant an

opportunity to move the court to set aside the default before the court enters default judgment.

Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b)–(c).

       Although entry of default judgment may at times be appropriate, it is “not automatic.”

Braun v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 228 F. Supp. 3d 64, 74 (D.D.C. 2017) (quoting Mwani v. bin

Laden, 417 F.3d 1, 6 (D.C. Cir. 2005) (footnote omitted)). Because “strong policies favor the

resolution of disputes on their merits,” the court “normally” must view the default judgment as

                                                  6
“available only when the adversary process has been halted because of an essentially

unresponsive party.” Jackson v. Beech, 636 F.2d 831, 836 (D.C. Cir. 1980) (quoting H. F.

Livermore Corp. v. Aktiengesellschaft Gebruder Loepfe, 432 F.2d 689, 691 (D.C. Cir. 1970) (per

curiam)). Even if a defendant appears “essentially unresponsive,” id., the court still has an

“affirmative obligation” to ensure that it has subject matter jurisdiction over the suit, James

Madison Ltd. by Hecht v. Ludwig, 82 F.3d 1085, 1092 (D.C. Cir. 1996). The court must also

“satisfy itself that it has personal jurisdiction before entering judgment against an absent

defendant.” Mwani, 417 F.3d at 6. “[A]lthough the plaintiffs retain ‘the burden of proving

personal jurisdiction,’” “[i]n the absence of an evidentiary hearing,” plaintiffs can “satisfy that

burden with a prima facie showing.” Braun, 228 F. Supp. 3d at 74 (internal quotation marks

omitted) (quoting Mwani, 417 F.3d at 7). To make the required prima facie showing, plaintiffs

may rely on “their pleadings, bolstered by such affidavits and other written materials as they can

otherwise obtain.” Mwani, 417 F.3d at 7.

                         B. Evidentiary Showing Required by the FSIA

        A court addressing an FSIA claim can enter default judgment against a foreign state only

if “the claimant[s] establish[] [their] right to relief by evidence satisfactory to the court.” 28

U.S.C. § 1608(e); see also Roeder v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 333 F.3d 228, 232 (D.C. Cir.

2003) (“The court . . . has an obligation to satisfy itself that plaintiffs have established a right to

relief.”). This statutory standard mirrors the default judgment standard of Federal Rule of Civil

Procedure 55(d). See Hamen v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 401 F. Supp. 3d 85, 90 (D.D.C. 2019)

(citing Owens v. Republic of Sudan (“Owens II”), 864 F.3d 751, 785 (D.C. Cir. 2017), vacated

and remanded sub nom. Opati v. Republic of Sudan, 140 S. Ct. 1601 (2020); Hill v. Republic of

Iraq, 328 F.3d 680, 683 (D.C. Cir. 2003)). The “FSIA leaves it to the court to determine

                                                   7
precisely how much and what kinds of evidence . . . plaintiff[s] must provide, requiring only that

it be ‘satisfactory to the court.’” Han Kim v. Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, 774 F.3d

1044, 1047–48 (D.C. Cir. 2014) (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 1608(e)). A court making a determination

about the evidence required must bear in mind Congress’s statutory purpose in enacting a private

right of action in section 1605A of the FSIA: to “compensate[] the victims of terrorism [and

thereby] punish foreign states who have committed or sponsored such acts and deter them from

doing so in the future.” Id. at 1048 (quoting Price v. Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya,

294 F.3d 82, 88–89 (D.C. Cir. 2002)). In parsing the evidence that plaintiffs offer, “[c]ourts may

rely on uncontroverted factual allegations that are supported by affidavits.” Roth v. Islamic

Republic of Iran, 78 F. Supp. 3d 379, 386 (D.D.C. 2015) (citing Rimkus, 750 F. Supp. 2d at 171).

“Uncontroverted factual allegations that are supported by admissible evidence are taken as true.”

Braun, 228 F. Supp. 3d at 74–75 (citing Roth, 78 F. Supp. 3d at 386; Gates v. Syrian Arab

Republic, 580 F. Supp. 2d 53, 63 (D.D.C. 2008)); see also Estate of Botvin ex rel. Ellis v. Islamic

Republic of Iran, 510 F. Supp. 2d 101, 103 (D.D.C. 2007) (citing Greenbaum v. Islamic Republic

of Iran, 451 F. Supp. 2d 90, 94–95 (D.D.C. 2006)).

                                          IV. ANALYSIS

       As the Court explained in Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 170–71, and Barry II, 437 F. Supp.

3d at 28, before entering default judgment in a suit under the FSIA, it is to complete a multi-step

process. First, as a threshold matter, it must ensure that it has subject matter jurisdiction over

Plaintiffs’ claims and, in addition, the Court must confirm that it may properly exercise personal

jurisdiction over the Defendant. Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 172. Then, upon a finding that

jurisdiction is proper, the Court must decide liability and damages. Id. For the reasons set forth

below, the Court finds that it has original jurisdiction over this suit pursuant to the FSIA, that it

                                                   8
has personal jurisdiction over Defendant Iran, and that all Plaintiffs but two have established

liability and a right to relief in the form of compensatory damages. The Court also awards

punitive damages to the Plaintiffs that are granted default judgment on liability under both

federal and state-law claims. 4

                                          A. Jurisdiction 5

       Subject to an adequate showing by Plaintiffs, the FSIA waives Defendant’s sovereign

immunity and grants this Court subject matter jurisdiction over this suit. The FSIA separately

sets forth procedural requirements to establish personal jurisdiction. For the reasons discussed

below, the Court concludes that it has jurisdiction here.

                                  1. Waiver of Sovereign Immunity

       The pertinent jurisdictional question is whether the FSIA’s “terrorism exception,” 28

U.S.C. § 1605A, applies such that Defendant Iran—a foreign state—is “not entitled to

immunity,” 28 U.S.C. § 1330(a), and Plaintiffs may pursue their claims before this Court. See

Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 172–73 (summarizing background sovereign immunity principles).

The terrorism exception establishes “that a foreign state is not immune in ‘any case’ in which

       4
          The Court will not consider whether Plaintiffs satisfied the limitation period in
§ 1605A(b). Under the law of this Circuit, “the limitation period in § 1605A(b) is not
jurisdictional” and therefore a sovereign will “forfeit[] its limitation defense by defaulting in the
district court.” Owens II, 864 F.3d at 801; see also Maalouf v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 923
F.3d 1095, 1108–09 (D.C. Cir. 2019). Here, Iran is in default, having never appeared in this
case. See Clerk’s Entry of Default, ECF No. 17.
       5
          As explained in Barry I and Barry II, 28 U.S.C. § 1330 confers federal district courts
with “original jurisdiction” in FSIA cases. See 28 U.S.C. § 1330(a) (stating that original
jurisdiction exists “without regard to amount in controversy” in “any nonjury civil action against
a foreign state” that seeks “relief in personam,” and for which “the foreign state is not entitled to
immunity”). Here, Plaintiffs have not demanded a jury trial and seek only monetary damages,
see generally Compl., and Defendant Iran is plainly a foreign state. Thus, the Court will focus
on the final element: whether Defendant Iran is “not entitled to immunity,” such that the Court
may exercise subject matter jurisdiction over Plaintiffs’ claims.

                                                  9
‘money damages are sought against a foreign state for personal injury or death that was caused

by an act of torture, extrajudicial killing, aircraft sabotage, hostage taking, or the provision of

material support or resources for such an act.’” Id. at 173 (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 1605A). A

plaintiff in a suit brought under the FSIA “‘bears [the] initial burden of production to show an

exception to immunity, such as § 1605A, applies,’ whereupon, if the defendant fails to appear,

‘jurisdiction attaches.’” Id. (quoting Owens II, 864 F.3d at 784). In addition, the terrorism

exception applies only if two prerequisites are met: (1) the foreign state was designated as a

“state sponsor of terrorism at the time of the act,” and “remains so designated when the claim is

filed,” 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(a)(2)(A)(i)(I), and (2) the “claimant or the victim was” a national of

the United States, a member of the armed forces, or “otherwise an employee of the Government

of the United States[] or . . . an individual performing a contract awarded by the United States

Government, acting within the scope of the employee’s employment” at the time of the act, id.

§ 1605A(a)(2)(A)(ii). See also Mohammadi v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 782 F.3d 9, 14 (D.C.

Cir. 2015); Schertzman Cohen v. Islamic Republic of Iran, No. 17-1214 (JEB), 2019 WL

3037868, at *3 (D.D.C. July 11, 2019). The Court will first consider whether these threshold

requirements are met and then consider whether this suit falls within the terrorism exception’s

waiver of sovereign immunity, thereby conferring subject matter jurisdiction.

                 a. Requirements for a Claim to Be Heard Under Section 1605A

       The Court finds that § 1605A’s prerequisites are met. First, Iran was designated as a state

sponsor of terrorism in 1984, see Determination Pursuant to Section 6(i) of the Export

Administration Act of 1979—Iran, 49 Fed. Reg. 2836-02 (Jan. 23, 1984), and has remained so

designated ever since, see U.S. Dep’t of State, State Sponsors of Terrorism,

https://www.state.gov/state-sponsors-of-terrorism/ (last visited February 20, 2024). Thus, the

                                                  10
claims involving injuries suffered as a result of the 1984 bombing satisfy the first portion of

section 1605A. So, too, do the claims relating to the 1983 bombing. Although Iran was not

designated as a state sponsor of terrorism at the time of the earlier bombing, Iran was “so

designated” as a state sponsor of terrorism “as a result of” the 1983 bombing. 28 U.S.C. §

1605A(a)(2)(A)(i)(I); see Dammarell v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Dammarell IV”), 404 F.

Supp. 2d 261, 273 (D.D.C. 2005) (“On January 19, 1984, President Reagan designated Iran a

state sponsor of terrorism. This designation was in response to Iran’s role in sponsoring a

number of terrorist acts in Lebanon, including the April 18, 1983, Embassy bombing at issue

here.” (citations omitted)); Fain v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 856 F. Supp. 2d 109, 120 (D.D.C.

2012) (“Iran was designated by the U.S. Secretary of State as a sponsor of terrorism, partially in

response to the [1983] Beirut bombing.” (citation omitted)). Consequently, the first prerequisite

for a claim to be heard under section 1605A is met for Plaintiffs’ claims involving injuries

arising from both the 1983 and 1984 bombings.

       In addition, Plaintiffs have fulfilled the second prong of section 1605A(a). Again, the

terrorism exception applies only if the “claimant or victim was,” at the time of the act, a national

of the United States, a member of the armed forces, or working as “an employee of the

Government of the United States” or “performing a contract awarded by the United States

Government” and, in either case, “acting within the scope of the employee’s employment.” 28

U.S.C. § 1605A(a)(2)(A)(ii). Special Master Griffin’s findings of fact establish by a clear and

convincing evidence standard, R. & R. ¶ 16, that the Plaintiffs directly injured in the attacks were

either members of the armed forces or U.S. government employees or performing contracts

awarded by the U.S. government at the time of the act, and that all were acting within the scope

of their employment. The Court accepts the Special Master’s findings of fact, derived from

                                                 11
uncontroverted evidence presented to him, on this matter. These claimants plainly fall within the

section 1605A categories of individuals entitled to bring a claim. Each of the remaining claims

that are brought by immediate family members, moreover, is rooted in one of these claims. In

other words, as has been the case in other suits involving claims for relief by family members of

directly injured individuals, the remaining “claims are derived from claims where the victims

were U.S. Government employees,” members of the armed services, or performing contracts

awarded by the U.S. government “at the time of the attack as required by

§ 1605A(a)(2)(A)(ii)(I)-(III).” Estate of Doe I, 808 F. Supp. 2d at 13. Thus, all Plaintiffs have

met the threshold requirements for a claim to be heard under section 1605A.

                        b. Section 1605A’s Waiver of Sovereign Immunity

       With these threshold requirements met, the next jurisdictional issue facing the Court is

whether Plaintiffs have met each of the requirements enumerated in section 1605A itself. As the

Court discussed in Barry I, “an exception to sovereign immunity exists for a foreign defendant

when the FSIA claimant seeks [1] ‘money damages’ [2] ‘against a foreign state’ for [3] ‘personal

injury or death that [4] was caused by [5] an act of torture, extrajudicial killing, aircraft sabotage,

hostage taking, or the provision of material support or resources for such an act.’” 410 F. Supp.

3d at 174 (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(a)(1); see also Oveissi v. Islamic Republic of Iran

(“Oveissi III”), 879 F. Supp. 2d 44, 51–52 (D.D.C. 2012); Wultz v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 864

F. Supp. 2d 24, 33 (D.D.C. 2012). Just as in Barry I, the Court finds that each of the elements is

met. First, because Plaintiffs seek money damages in the form of compensatory, economic, and

punitive damages against Defendant Iran, see, e.g., Compl. at 165–66, prongs one and two are

satisfied. Second, the Special Master’s report and recommendation sets forth in substantial detail

how each of the directly injured Plaintiffs suffered physical injuries and—in the case of ten

                                                  12
Plaintiffs—how they were fatally injured in the attack. See generally R. & R. It also delineates

how each of their immediate family members suffered emotional pain and suffering due to the

injuries of their loved ones. See id. The Court adopts the Special Master’s uncontroverted

findings of fact concerning the personal injury or death of each of the Plaintiffs and therefore

finds that the third prong is met.

       Furthermore, Plaintiffs carry their burden regarding prong four: causation. “Causation in

a FSIA suit is established when the plaintiff shows proximate cause, or ‘some reasonable

connection’ between the defendant’s act and ‘the damages which the plaintiff has suffered.’”

Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 174–75 (quoting Valore v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 700 F. Supp. 2d

52, 66 (D.D.C. 2010)); see also Owens II, 864 F.3d at 794 (affirming proximate cause as the

jurisdictional standard pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1605A). In this case, for the 1983 Embassy

bombing, Plaintiffs allege that “the personal injuries and/or deaths of the Plaintiff . . . victims of

the April 18, 1983 attack, and the injuries to the Plaintiff family members . . . were the direct and

proximate result of the willful, wrongful, intentional, and reckless acts of” individuals “whose

acts were materially supported, funded and directed by Iran and its agents while acting within the

scope of their offices, employment, or agencies.” Compl. ¶ 422. Plaintiffs further allege that, for

the 1984 Embassy Annex bombing, the same is true. Id. ¶ 432. The Court, taking judicial notice

of evidentiary findings in other cases in this jurisdiction to draw its own conclusions of fact, see

Rimkus, 750 F. Supp. 2d at 172, agrees.

       As Plaintiffs document in detail, numerous other courts in this district have linked Iran to

both the 1983 and 1984 attacks. Because the Court already established that there is a

“reasonable connection” between Iran’s support for the 1984 Annex attack and injuries suffered

by those present at the site of the bombing, see Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 174–75, it will not

                                                  13
retread this ground. Here, as in its prior analysis, the Court takes judicial notice of the ample

evidence set forth in prior cases and concludes that this evidence is sufficient to “justify a

specific finding that defendant[] [Iran] provided support for the 1984 attack on the U.S. Embassy

Annex in Lebanon.” Estate of Doe I, 808 F. Supp. 2d at 16 (citing Wagner, 172 F. Supp. 2d at

133; Welch v. Islamic Republic of Iran, No. 01-863, 2007 WL 7688043 (CKK) (AK), at *27

(D.D.C. Sept. 20, 2007); Brewer, 664 F. Supp. 2d at 54).

       Other courts in this district, moreover, have heard relevant testimony and reached the

same conclusion concerning the 1983 attack on the U.S. Embassy in Lebanon. See Estate of Doe

I, 808 F. Supp. 2d at 15 (“[T]he evidence presented at the Dammarell evidentiary trial ‘show[ed]

unquestionably that Iran and MOIS provided material support to Hezbollah, and that this support

was the proximate cause of the 1983 Beirut embassy bombing and the deaths and injuries that

resulted.’” (quoting Dammarell v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Dammarell II”), No. 01-2224

(JDB), 2005 WL 756090, at *6 (D.D.C. Mar. 29, 2005))); Dammarell IV, 404 F. Supp. at 272

(citing expert testimony to support the conclusion that “the complexity of the attack upon the

U.S. Embassy in Beirut evidenced Iran’s central role in the attack”); Salazar, 370 F. Supp. 2d at

109 (“[P]laintiff’s submissions and the trial record amply support the allegations . . . [that] Iran,

the MOIS, and the IRGC directly and proximately caused the death of Mr. Salazar” in the 1983

embassy bombing.). Based on these prior evidentiary findings and the filings before it, the Court

finds that Plaintiffs have established a “reasonable connection” between Iran’s support for both

the 1983 and 1984 attacks and their alleged injuries. Thus, Plaintiffs have satisfied the fourth

prong of section 1605A.

       In addition, for reasons this Court documented in detail in Barry I, this showing suffices

to meet section 1605A’s fifth prong: the requirement that claims brought pursuant to the FSIA

                                                  14
must arise out of, as relevant here, “extrajudicial killing . . . or the provision of material support

or resources for such an act.” 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(a)(1). Here, the Court concludes that driving a

vehicle laden with explosives into a building filled with U.S. government workers and

contractors (as in the 1983 attack) or detonating such a vehicle in close proximity to a building

full of embassy employees (as in the 1984 attack) is plainly an “extrajudicial killing” as set forth

in the FSIA. See 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(h)(7) (defining term by reference to section 3 of the Torture

Victim Protection Act of 1991, Pub. L. No. 102-256, § 3(g), 106 Stat. 73 (1992)). Moreover,

drawing from the voluminous evidentiary records compiled by other courts in related cases in

this Circuit, as described above, the Court further concludes that Iran provided “material support

or resources” as defined by the FSIA. See id. § 1605A(h)(3) (providing, in relevant part, that

“‘material support or resources’ means any property, tangible or intangible, or service”

(referencing 18 U.S.C. § 2339A)).

        Accordingly, all of section 1605A’s subject matter jurisdictional requirements are met,

and Iran’s sovereign immunity is waived with respect to Plaintiffs’ claims.

                                       2. Personal Jurisdiction

        An additional jurisdictional question facing this Court is whether Plaintiffs have met the

FSIA’s separate procedural requirements regarding personal jurisdiction. “Personal jurisdiction

exists over a non-immune sovereign so long as service of process has been made as required by

section 1608” of the statute. Estate of Heiser v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Heiser I”), 466 F.

Supp. 2d 229, 255 (D.D.C. 2006) (citation omitted); 28 U.S.C. § 1330(b) (“[P]ersonal

jurisdiction over a foreign state shall exist as to every claim for relief over which the district

courts have jurisdiction . . . where service has been made under section 1608 of this title.”).

Section 1608 provides four ways to effect service: [1] “special arrangement for service between

                                                  15
the plaintiff and the foreign state or political subdivision;” [2] “in accordance with an applicable

international convention on service of judicial documents;” [3] in cases where the first two

methods do not suffice to effect service, “by sending a copy of the summons and complaint and a

notice of suit” including translations “into the official language of the foreign state, by any form

of mail requiring a signed receipt, to be addressed and dispatched by the clerk of the court to the

head of the ministry of foreign affairs of the foreign state concerned,” or [4] if the third method

also fails,

        by sending two copies of the summons and complaint and a notice of suit,
        together with a translation of each into the official language of the foreign state,
        by any form of mail requiring a signed receipt, to be addressed and dispatched by
        the clerk of the court to the Secretary of State in Washington, District of
        Columbia, to the attention of the Director of Special Consular Services—and the
        Secretary shall transmit one copy of the papers through diplomatic channels to the
        foreign state and shall send to the clerk of the court a certified copy of the
        diplomatic note indicating when the papers were transmitted.

28 U.S.C. § 1608(a).

        Here, neither option one nor option two applies. Plaintiffs do not have a “special

arrangement” with Iran, nor is there an “applicable international convention.” Id. Plaintiffs

therefore attempted to effectuate service using the third method. See Aff., Feb. 11, 2022, ECF

No. 8 (request by Plaintiffs’ counsel that Clerk of Court mail a copy of the summons, complaint,

and notice of suit by registered mail to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the Islamic Republic

of Iran). When service was not successful with this method, see Notice Regarding Inability to

Effect Service Under 28 U.S.C. § 1608(a)(3), ECF No. 11, Plaintiffs resorted to the fourth

method and requested that the “Clerk dispatch the alternative means of service prescribed by 28

U.S.C. 1608(a)(4),” including “send[ing] two copies of the summons, complaint, and notice of

suit, together with a translation of each into the official language of the foreign state, ‘by any

form of mail requiring a signed receipt, to be addressed and dispatched by the clerk of the court

                                                  16
to the Secretary of State in Washington, District of Columbia, to the attention of the Director of

Special Consular Services.’” Request for Service of Summons, Notice of Suit, and Complaint on

Def. (Mar. 28, 2022), ECF No. 12. The Clerk of the Court thereafter indicated that the papers

were transmitted to the State Department pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1608(a)(4), Certificate of

Clerk, Mar. 28, 2022, ECF No. 13, and later provided notice that the documents were transmitted

through diplomatic channels as the statute requires, see Return of Service Affidavit, ECF No. 14

(stating that the “documents were delivered to the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs under

cover of diplomatic note No. 1119-IE, dated October 24, 2022 and delivered on October 25,

2022”). Thus, Plaintiffs have satisfied section 1608’s service of process requirements, and the

Court may exercise personal jurisdiction over Defendant.

                   B. Plaintiffs’ Eligibility to Bring Section 1605A Claims

       One last threshold matter remains before assessing liability: whether Plaintiffs are

eligible to bring a claim pursuant to section 1605A. 6 Here, as indicated previously, Plaintiffs

consist of two categories of individuals: (1) individuals who were members of the armed forces,

or employed by or performing contracts awarded by the U.S. government at the time of one or

both attacks, or the estates of such individuals, and (2) the immediate family members of such

directly injured individuals, or the legal representatives of these immediate family members.

Pls.’ Mot. at 1–2. The Court will next consider whether the estates of the now-deceased

Plaintiffs within each of the two above categories have standing, after briefly considering a

       6
          As the Court explained in Barry I, this inquiry is essential because “the question [of]
whether a statute withdraws sovereign immunity”—as the Court has concluded, for the reasons
detailed above, that the FSIA has done in this instance—“is ‘analytically distinct’ from whether a
plaintiff has a cause of action.” 410 F. Supp. 3d at 176 (quoting Owens II, 864 F.3d at 807); see
also FDIC v. Meyer, 510 U.S. 471, 484 (1994); United States v. Mitchell, 463 U.S. 206, 218
(1983)). The Court discusses the relevant theories of liability that might give rise to a cause of
action for each of the categories of Plaintiffs below.

                                                17
threshold issue regarding whether certain now-deceased Plaintiffs may substitute a legal

representative.

                              1. Substitution of Legal Representatives

        Before addressing the standing of the various estates, the Court addresses a preliminary

issue regarding the legal representatives pursuing some of these claims. Plaintiffs filed a motion

to substitute for five Plaintiffs for the estates of now-deceased Plaintiffs under Federal Rule of

Civil Procedure 25(a). 7 Pls.’ Mot. Substitute & Mem. Supp. (“Subs. Mot.”), ECF No. 20. “A

deceased individual” such as these Plaintiffs “cannot serve as the real party in interest in a civil

action.” Mohammadi v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 947 F. Supp. 2d 48, 54 n.2 (D.D.C. 2013)

(citing Fed. R. Civ. P. 25(a)(1)). If, as here,

        a party dies during litigation, Rule 25 allows for the substitution of a proper party.
        It states that once a formal suggestion of death is made on the record, a party or the
        decedent’s successor or representative has 90 days in which to file a motion for
        substitution of a proper party.

Worley v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 75 F. Supp. 3d 311, 333 (D.D.C. 2014). Plaintiffs filed both

their suggestions of death and motion to substitute on the same day. Even if they had not, “the

Court may, sua sponte, substitute an appropriate person, such as a close relative, as a

representative of the decedent’s estate.” Bluth v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 203 F. Supp. 3d 1, 22

n.17 (D.D.C. 2016) (quoting Mohammadi, 947 F. Supp. 2d at 55). Moreover, as the Mohammadi

        7
         These individuals are Jane Wife VBrown, Compl. ¶ 163, for whom Plaintiffs seek to
substitute her son, John Son1 VBrown, Pls.’ Mot. Substitute & Mem. Supp. (“Subs. Mot.”) at 1,
ECF No. 20; Jane Wife GGBrown, Compl., ¶ 220, for whom Plaintiffs seek to substitute her
daughter, Jane Daughter1 GGBrown, Subs. Mot. at 1; Jane Mother NNNBrown, Compl. ¶ 403,
for whom Plaintiffs seek to substitute her son, John Victim NNNBrown, Subs. Mot. at 1; Jane
Victim QBrown, for whom Plaintiffs seek to substitute her son, John Brother QBrown, as the
new legal representative following the death of her now-deceased legal representative, Jane
Victim QBrown, Subs. Mot. at 1; and John Brother2 XBrown, Compl. ¶ 168, for whom Plaintiffs
seek to substitute his son, John Representative XBrown, Subs. Mot. at 1.

                                                  18
court explained, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure “25(a)(1) itself provides that ‘[i]f a party dies

and the claim is not extinguished, the court may order substitution of the proper party.’” 947 F.

Supp. 2d at 54 n.2. With these principles in mind, the Court grants Plaintiffs’ motion to

substitute legal representatives for the now-deceased Plaintiffs.

                                        2. Standing of Estates

        The Court will next consider whether the estates of the now-deceased Plaintiffs have

standing. “When, such as here, an estate-plaintiff brings an action under [the] FSIA’s private

cause of action, the plaintiff must first establish the estate’s standing, or ‘[its] power . . . to bring

and maintain legal claims.’” Cohen v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 238 F. Supp. 3d 71, 85 (D.D.C.

2017) (second alteration in original) (quoting Taylor v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 811 F. Supp. 2d

1, 12–13 (D.D.C. 2011)). The standing of the estate is a “threshold question” that is “governed

by the law of the state which also governs the creation of the estate.” Worley, 75 F. Supp. 3d at

333 (quoting Taylor, 811 F. Supp. 2d at 12); see also Lelchook v. Syrian Arab Republic

(“Lelchook II”), No. CV 16-1550 (RC), 2019 WL 2191177, at *1 (D.D.C. Mar. 25, 2019)

(quoting Taylor, 811 F. Supp. 2d at 12).

        Plaintiffs have provided uncontroverted evidence regarding which state’s law governs the

creation of each of the estates bringing claims in this suit. See Pls.’ Mot. at 11–18. Specifically,

                                                   19
seven estates were created under Virginia law; 8 two estates were created under Texas law; 9 one

estate was created under Pennsylvania law; 10 one estate was created under New Jersey law; 11 one

estate was created under Michigan law; 12 two estates were created under South Carolina law; 13

one estate was created under Minnesota law; 14 one estate was created under Syrian law; 15 two

estates were created under United Kingdom law; 16 and the rest of the estates were created under

Lebanese law. 17

       8
         These are the estates of John Victim VBrown, Compl. ¶ 162, whose claims are brought
by his son, referred to as John Son1 VBrown, id.; R. & R. ¶ 1242; Ben Henry Maxwell, Compl. ¶

         This is the estate of John Victim KKKBrown, Compl. ¶ 378, whose claims are brought
by Jane Daughter1 KKKBrown, id.; R. & R. ¶ 3112.

                                               20
       The Court next considers the applicable laws of each of these domestic and foreign

states. 18 For the reasons set forth below, it has been established that the individuals who serve as

legal representatives for the estates of the deceased Plaintiffs, other than the estates governed by

United Kingdom law, have standing under the governing statutes and/or law of inheritance for

each of the respective jurisdictions. The question of United Kingdom law regarding a family

member’s ability to state a claim to recover emotional damages stemming from the loss of a

child has not been sufficiently addressed at this time.

          Plaintiffs bring claims for both IIED (in association with directly injured victims or the
immediate family member of such victims) and wrongful death (on behalf of victims killed in
one of the attacks). All of the wrongful death claims, see Compl. ¶¶ 8, 15, 26, 31, 40, 49, 55, 63,
70, 76, involve estates governed by Virginia, Texas, Syrian, and Lebanese law, supra notes 8–9,
15, 17. Thus, the Court’s discussion of the law of all other jurisdictions considers only whether
the law of the relevant state provides for a personal injury action for IIED and/or solatium.

                                                 21
                              3. Estates Governed by Virginia Law

       The estate of John VictimVBrown is governed by Virginia law and is associated with an

individual who was injured in both the 1983 and 1984 attacks. R. & R. ¶ 1242. The estate of

Virginia Glover Maxwell is governed by Virginia law and is associated with an individual whose

son (Ben Henry Maxwell) was killed in the 1983 attack. R. & R. ¶ 34. The estate of Jane Wife

MBrown is governed by Virginia law and is associated with an individual whose husband (John

Victim MBrown) was injured in the 1983 attack. R. & R. ¶ 963. The estate of Jane Wife

VBrown is governed by Virginia law and is associated with an individual whose husband (John

Victim VBrown) was injured in both the 1983 and 1984 attacks. R. & R. ¶ 1256. The estates of

John Joseph Hussey, Jr., and Jeannette Marie Hussey are governed by Virginia law and are

associated with individuals whose son (Peter James Hussey) was injured in the 1984 attack. R.

& R. ¶¶ 851, 857.

       Virginia law provides that “a decedent’s estate [may] maintain any cause of action that

the decedent would have been able to assert during his or her life (e.g., battery or IIED).”

Lelchook II, 2019 WL 2191177, at *1 (quoting Dammarell IV, 404 F. Supp. at 297).

Accordingly, the six estates listed in the preceding paragraph have standing to pursue claims for

physical or emotional injuries that the Plaintiffs could have pursued during their lifetime.

       Separately, the estate of Ben Henry Maxwell is governed by Virginia law and is

associated with an individual who was killed in the 1983 attack. R. & R. ¶ 18. “Virginia permits

the personal representative of a deceased individual to bring an action against any person or

persons (including corporations or other legal entities) whose wrongful conduct caused the

decedent’s death.” Dammarell IV, 404 F. Supp. at 297. That being so, Ben Henry Maxwell’s

estate has standing to assert a wrongful death claim.

                                                 22
                                  4. Estate Governed by Texas Law

        The estate of Raymond Joseph Piascik is governed by Texas law and is associated with

an individual whose daughter (Lisa Ann Piascik) was injured in the 1983 attack. R. & R. ¶ 879.

Texas state law provides that a so-called “survival” “cause of action for personal injury to the

health, reputation, or person of an injured person does not abate because of the death of the

injured person.” Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. § 71.021(a). “A decedent’s personal injury action

therefore survives death and may be prosecuted on [his] behalf.” Taylor, 811 F. Supp. 2d at 13

(quoting Elliott v. Hollingshead, 327 S.W.3d 824, 833 (Tex. App. 2010)); see also Austin

Nursing Ctr., Inc. v. Lovato, 171 S.W.3d 845, 850 (Tex. 2005) (“Because a decedent’s survival

claim becomes part of her estate at death, it follows that the estate retains a justiciable interest in

the survival action.”). Accordingly, the estate of Raymond Joseph Piascik has standing to pursue

any personal injury claims that the Plaintiff could have pursued during his lifetime. See Barry II,

437 F. Supp. 3d at 39 (holding that estates associated with the brother and sister of “an individual

who was injured in the 1983 attack” had standing to pursue claims under Texas law).

        Furthermore, the estate of Richard Twine is also governed by Texas law and is associated

with an individual who was killed in the 1983 attack. R. & R. ¶ 78. His estate is represented by

his son, James Charles Twine. Compl. ¶¶ 15, 17; R. & R. ¶ 78. Texas law provides that the

“surviving spouse, children, and parents of the deceased may bring [an action for wrongful

death] . . . for the benefit of all,” or “[i]f none of the individuals entitled to bring an action have

begun the action within three calendar months after the death of the injured individual, his

executor or administrator shall bring and prosecute the action unless requested not to by all those

individuals.” Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. § 71.004. As the personal representative of Richard

Twine’s estate, James Charles Twine (his son) is the “proper plaintiff to bring a wrongful death

                                                   23
action under Texas law,” Heiser I, 466 F. Supp. 2d at 334, and therefore has standing to assert a

wrongful death claim.

                            5. Estate Governed by Pennsylvania Law

       The estate of Albert Nicholas Alexander is governed by Pennsylvania law and is

associated with an individual who was injured in the 1983 attack. R. & R. ¶ 791. Under

Pennsylvania law,

       “[a]ll causes of action or proceedings shall survive as provided in [§ 8302],” 20
       Pa. Cons.Stat. § 3371, and that separate provision specifies that “[a]ll causes of
       action or proceedings, real or personal, shall survive the death of the plaintiff or of
       the defendant.” 42 Pa. Cons.Stat. § 8302. As the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
       has explained, these statutes “do not create a new cause of action [but] simply
       permit a personal representative to enforce a cause of action which had already
       accrued to the deceased before his death.”

Taylor, 811 F. Supp. 2d at 13 (quoting Anthony v. Koppers Co., 436 A.2d 181, 185 (Pa. 1981)).

Accordingly, the estate governed by Pennsylvania law has standing to pursue personal injury

claims that the Plaintiff could have pursued during his lifetime.

                             6. Estate Governed by New Jersey Law

       The estate of John Victim NNBrown is governed by New Jersey law and is associated

with an individual who was injured in the 1984 attack. R. & R. ¶ 2072. “New Jersey’s Survival

Act allows ‘[e]xecutors and administrators’ of a decedent’s estate to bring actions for damages

for ‘any trespass done to the person or property’ of the decedent—before his death—that the

decedent could have brought if he were still living.” Hunter v. Dematic USA, No. 16-00872

(WHW) (CLW), 2016 WL 3410165, at *4 (D.N.J. June 15, 2016) (quoting N.J. Stat. § 2A:15-3).

New Jersey courts, both federal and state, have clarified that “[t]he term ‘trespass’ in the

[survival] statute is equated with ‘tort,’” and have further emphasized that the scope of the statute

“should not be modified by implication to exclude torts in which damages for emotional distress,

not physical injury, are sought.” Hawes v. Johnson & Johnson, 940 F. Supp. 697, 700 (D.N.J.

                                                 24
1996) (quoting Canino v. New York News, Inc., 475 A.2d 528, 531 (N.J. 1984)). The estate

governed by New Jersey law may, therefore, pursue any tort claims that the Plaintiff could have

pursued were he still alive.

                               7. Estate Governed by Michigan Law

       The estate of John Victim KKKBrown is governed by Michigan law and is associated

with an individual who was injured in both the 1983 and 1984 bombings. R. & R. ¶ 3112.

“Under Michigan state law . . . the general rule is that all actions and claims survive death.”

Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 38 (cleaned up). There is an exception, however, “for a wrongful

death action seeking to recover an injury that resulted in death, which ‘shall not be prosecuted

after the death of the injured person except’ as statutorily prescribed.” Id. (quoting Mich. Comp.

Laws § 600.2921). Here, there are no allegations that the injuries the Plaintiff sustained in the

1983 and 1984 bombings caused his death, and thus the rule rather than the exception controls.

His estate therefore has standing under Michigan law.

                            8. Estates Governed by South Carolina Law

       The estates of Tommie Franklin Brant and Ann Wooten Brant are governed by South

Carolina law and are associated with individuals whose son (Russell Franklin Brant) was injured

in the 1984 attack. R. & R. ¶¶ 668, 674. Under South Carolina law “[c]auses of action for . . .

any and all injuries to the person . . . shall survive both to and against the personal or real

representative . . . of a deceased person.” Anderson v. The Islamic Republic of Iran, 753 F.

Supp. 2d 68, 83–84 (D.D.C. 2010) (quoting S.C. Code Ann. § 15–5–90). The state’s highest

court “has explained that this survivability statute ‘has a wide ambit,’ and that, ‘[g]enerally, any

cause of action which could have been brought by the deceased in his lifetime survives to his

representative.’” Id. (quoting Ferguson v. Charleston Lincoln Mercury, Inc., 564 S.E.2d 94, 96–

                                                  25
97 (S.C. 2002)). The estates governed by South Carolina law thus have standing to pursue a

cause of action for injuries that the now-deceased Plaintiffs could have brought while they were

alive.

                                9. Estate Governed by Minnesota Law

         The estate of Evelyn Betty Middleton is governed by Minnesota law and is associated

with an individual whose son (Richard James Browning) was injured in the 1983 attack. R. & R.

¶ 639. Minnesota law provides that “[a] cause of action arising out of an injury to the person

dies with the person of the party in whose favor it exists. . . . All other causes of action by one

against another, whether arising on contract or not, survive to the personal representatives of the

former.” Taylor, 811 F. Supp. 2d at 13 (quoting Minn.Stat. § 573.01 (2010)). As another court

in this district previously explained, “the Minnesota Supreme Court has acknowledged that ‘the

modern trend is that tort causes of action and liabilities are as fairly a part of the estate . . . as

contract debts.’” Id. (quoting Johnson v. Consolidated Freightways, Inc., 420 N.W.2d 608, 612

(Minn. 1988)). Accordingly, the estate governed by Minnesota law has standing to pursue a tort

cause of action that Plaintiff could have pursued during her lifetime.

                                 10. Estate Governed by Syrian Law

         Turning now to foreign law, Syrian laws of inheritance govern the claims of the estate of

John Victim Brown, an individual who was killed in the 1983 attack. 19 R. & R. ¶ 175. His

         19
           “To determine questions of foreign law such as those at hand (the standing of estates
created under Syrian[,] [United Kingdom] and Lebanese law), Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
44.1 permits courts determining foreign law to consider any relevant material or source,
including testimony, whether or not admissible under the Federal Rules of Evidence.” Barry II,
437 F. Supp. 3d at 39 n.26 (cleaned up). The Plaintiffs have provided a legal opinion on Syrian
law, the law that governs the estate of John Victim Brown. See Pls.’ Mot., Ex. 1, Legal Opinion
on Certain Issues Regarding Syrian Law (“Legal Opinion on Syrian Law”), ECF No. 29-2. The
Plaintiffs indicate therein the qualifications of the expert, and the filing satisfies the Court that
the author of this opinion is qualified to testify as an expert, as Federal Rule of Evidence 201

                                                    26
estate is represented by his son, John Son1 Brown, id. ¶¶ 175, 186, and seeks to recover

economic damages stemming from John Victim Brown’s wrongful death as well as

compensation for the pain and suffering John Victim Brown experienced before his passing,

Compl. ¶ 26, R. & R. ¶¶ 176, 3393. Under Syrian law, Article 223(2) of the Syrian Civil Code

permits “the heirs of a decedent [to] assert a claim for wrongful death of the decedent” and, in

doing so, to recover “economic losses by the decedent” on “behalf of the estate.” Legal Opinion

on Syrian Law 2. Moreover, Syrian law states that “heirs of a decedent may assert a claim for

compensation for pain and suffering experienced by a decedent as a result of physical injuries,

including physical injuries which ultimately cause the death of the decedent.” Id. All that being

so, the estate governed by Syrian law has standing to bring claims to seek compensation for

Plaintiff’s wrongful death, as well as his pain and suffering.

                          11. Estates Governed by United Kingdom Law

        The estates of Charles James Twine and Violet Elsie Twine are governed by United

Kingdom law and are associated with individuals whose son (Richard Twine) was killed in the

1983 attack. R. & R. ¶¶ 127, 133. Plaintiffs assert that, under United Kingdom law, “‘all causes

of action . . . vested in’ a person survive the death of that person ‘for the benefit of’ the estate,

and can be brought by an estate representative.” Pls.’ Mot. at 15 (quoting Law Reform

(Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1934, 24 & 25 Geo. 5 c. 41, § 1 (UK)). But aside from this

unadorned citation to the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act of 1934, Plaintiffs cite no

authority—nor do they attach a legal opinion—that persuasively establishes that English law

provides a cause of action that would enable the parents of a deceased individual to recover

requires. Thus, the Court’s analysis of the standing of the estate governed by Syrian law
considers the legal opinion that the Plaintiffs have provided.

                                                   27
emotional damages in connection with the death of their child in a different country. Cf. Roberts

v. Islamic Republic of Iran, No. 20-CV-1227-RCL, 2023 WL 4351468, at *6–9 (D.D.C. July 5,

2023) (explaining that “English common law does not provide a viable avenue” for family

member plaintiffs to recover for “psychiatric injury” where family member claimants were not

“in close proximity in space and time to the incident or its immediate aftermath” (internal

citations omitted)). The Court does not discount the possibility that English law does provide a

cause of action through which Charles James Twine and Violet Elsie Twine could have sought to

recover for the emotional injury caused by the death of their son. However, because it is

currently unclear whether English law provides such a cause of action that would then survive to

the benefit of the estate, Plaintiffs have not established the requisite standing for the estates

governed by United Kingdom law. Accordingly, the claims of the estates governed by United

Kingdom law are denied without prejudice.

                              12. Estates Governed by Lebanese Law

       The various estates governed by Lebanese law assert claims for (1) “physical and

emotional pain and suffering of a direct victim who later passed away,” (2) “emotional injuries

caused by the injury to or death of an immediate family member of a victim who later passed

away,” and (3) “wrongful death of direct victims who died in the Attacks.” Pls.’ Mot. at 18.

Regarding the first category of claims, “Lebanese law . . . permits direct victims to bring claims

for mental distress as well as physical or economic damage.” Bathiard v. Islamic Republic of

Iran, No. 16-CV-1549 (CRC), 2020 WL 1975672, at *2 (D.D.C. Apr. 24, 2020) (internal

quotation marks omitted). “‘Upon the death of the original claimant,’ the distress or physical or

economic damage that the claimant suffered is ‘considered to be “automatically transferred to his

                                                  28
or her heirs by operation of law,” authorizing the heirs to assert the claim for compensation on

behalf of the decedent.’” Id. (quoting Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 42).

       As for the second category of claims, this Court has previously explained that “Lebanese

law both recognizes a cause of action for the emotional distress caused by the death or injury of

an immediate family member and provides that a claim for compensation for such emotional

distress survives the passing of the individual and may be asserted by the decedent’s heir(s).”

Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 42. To be more specific, under “Article 134 of the Code of

Obligations and Contracts, emotional distress may be compensated provided that the claimant

and the initial victim share either a legitimate kinship based on an immediate family relationship

or a marriage alliance.” Id. (internal quotation marks and alterations omitted). “Where such a

relationship or a marriage alliance exists, upon the death of the original claimant, the emotional

distress that the claimant suffered is considered to be automatically transferred to his or her heirs

by operation of law, authorizing the heirs to assert the claim for compensation on behalf of the

decedent.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted). In other words, “‘Lebanese law allows for the

award of compensation for “moral damages,” such as emotional distress, suffered as the result of

the wrongful death or tortious injury of an immediate relative,’ and the estate of the original

claimant has standing to pursue the claim.” Id. (quoting Estate of Doe I, 808 F. Supp. 2d at 21).

All that being so, to the extent the estates governed by Lebanese law assert claims either for

physical or emotional injury suffered by now-deceased victims of the attacks or for emotional

injuries caused by the injury to, or death of, an immediate family member, those estates have

standing to pursue the claims of the deceased Plaintiffs.

       Finally, as the Plaintiffs note, this Court has previously accepted the standing of estates

governed by Lebanese law to assert wrongful death actions. See id. at 37 n.23 (“All of the

                                                 29
wrongful death claims involve estates governed by Lebanese law.” (citations omitted)); id. at 46

(holding that “the directly-injured Smith Plaintiffs have established liability for their wrongful

death claim”). The Court therefore continues to conclude that estates created under Lebanese

law have standing to assert wrongful death claims. The Court next considers what legal standard

governs Plaintiffs’ claims.

                                            C. Liability

         With these jurisdictional matters in hand, the Court is now ready to address the question

of liability. As the Court explained in Barry I, “although section 1605A creates a private right of

action for claimants who meet its other requirements, a FSIA plaintiff must further prove a

theory of liability to establish a claim for relief that entitles them to damages.” 410 F. Supp. 3d

at 176 (cleaned up); see also Owens II, 864 F.3d at 807 (“[T]he question [of] whether a statute

withdraws sovereign immunity is ‘analytically distinct’ from whether a plaintiff has a cause of

action.” (citing FDIC v. Meyer, 510 U.S. 471, 484 (1994); United States v. Mitchell, 463 U.S.

206, 218 (1983))). As detailed below, the theory of liability that each Plaintiff may raise

depends on the claimant’s identity. Again, Plaintiffs fall into two categories: (1) Plaintiffs who

were directly injured in one or both of the attacks, and (2) the immediate family members of

these individuals, the majority of whom are not U.S. nationals. For the following reasons, all

Plaintiffs (besides the estates governed by United Kingdom law, as discussed above) state a valid

claim under the FSIA, though the formal means by which the two categories of Plaintiffs do so is

distinct. 20

         20
           For concision, the Court uses the term “Plaintiff” or “Plaintiffs” to refer both to
plaintiffs who pursue claims in their individual capacity and those who are represented by a third
party acting on behalf of a deceased individual’s estate or on behalf of a legally incapacitated
individual.

                                                 30
                                    1. Directly Injured Plaintiffs

        The directly injured Plaintiffs’ claims are directly governed by the FSIA’s private right of

action. This private right of action, codified in its present form at section 1605A(c), “limits

claimants” to individuals who, at the time of the attack, fell within a category enumerated by the

statute, or the legal representative of such an individual. See Owens II, 864 F.3d at 805, 807

(“[Section] 1605A(c) authorizes a cause of action not only for . . . [the enumerated] groups but

also for the legal representative of a member of those groups.”). The enumerated categories, as

relevant here, cover members of the armed forces or “an employee of the Government of the

United States, or . . . an individual performing a contract awarded by the United States

Government, acting within the scope of the employee’s employment.” 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(c)(3).

As Plaintiffs state, and as the Court’s review of the Special Master’s findings of fact confirm, the

individuals who seek relief based on the direct injury to them during the attack fall within this

provision. See generally R. & R. Thus, these Plaintiffs may draw directly on section 1605A(c)

to establish a cause of action, but still must establish the theoretical basis that underpins the

allegation of liability.

        Plaintiffs who seek relief in section 1605A actions “‘generally’ turn to ‘the lens of civil

tort liability’” to articulate the “justification for such recovery.” Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 176

(quoting Rimkus, 750 F. Supp. 2d. at 175–76); see also, e.g., Schertzman Cohen, 2019 WL

3037868, at *5. “Based on the D.C. Circuit’s guidance, district courts in this jurisdiction ‘rely on

well-established principles of law, such as those found in the Restatement (Second) of Torts . . . ’

to define the elements and scope of these theories of recovery.” Worley, 75 F. Supp. 3d at 335

(quoting Oveissi III, 879 F. Supp. 2d at 54); see also Fraenkel v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 892

F.3d 348, 353 (D.C. Cir. 2018) (“The courts are not authorized to craft a body of federal

                                                  31
common law in deciding FSIA terrorism exception cases. However, a district court may rely on

well-established statements of common law . . . .” (citing Bettis v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 315

F.3d 325, 333 (D.C. Cir. 2003))). As it did in Barry I and Barry II, the Court follows this

approach to address the claims of Plaintiffs who fall within section 1605A’s enumerated

categories.

       Plaintiffs’ complaint requests relief under several common law theories of liability. 21

Two are relevant for the Court’s analysis of liability with respect to the directly injured Plaintiffs.

First, Plaintiffs allege intentional infliction of emotional distress caused by “[t]he acts of

detonating an explosive device at the U.S. Embassy in Lebanon on April 18, 1983, and the U.S.

       21
           In addition to the causes of action discussed in the body of this opinion, Count I seeks
compensatory damages pursuant to “28 U.S.C. § 1605A(c), Private Right of Action.” Compl.
¶¶ 434–440. As discussed above and in Barry I and Barry II, the FSIA “‘provides a private right
of action’ without any ‘guidance on the substantive bases for liability to determine plaintiffs’
entitlement to damages.’” Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 177 (quoting Braun, 228 F. Supp. 3d at
78). The text of Count I alleges that Plaintiffs “suffered, inter alia, death, physical pain and
suffering, mental anguish, emotional pain and suffering, loss of solation [sic], loss of consortium,
and/or economic losses,” Compl. ¶ 438, and seeks compensatory damages for these injuries, id. ¶
440. Because these claims for relief and the underlying factual allegations overlap with the other
counts of Plaintiffs’ complaint, and because a plaintiff may not recover twice for allegations that
arise from the same predicate acts, see Kassman v. Am. Univ., 546 F.2d 1029, 1034 (D.C. Cir.
1976), the Court does not read Count I as presenting a separate theory of liability for any of
Plaintiffs and considers it no further. Although Plaintiffs present alternative theories of
§ 1605A(c) liability in their motion for default judgment based on assault or battery as opposed
to IIED or wrongful death, see Pls.’ Mot. at 20–21 (arguing that Iran is liable under § 1605A(c)
causes of action based on all four underlying tort theories), Plaintiffs’ claims and facts focus
more on IIED and wrongful death. For example, the complaint includes a separate IIED count
alleging that “[all] Plaintiffs suffered severe emotional distress” and a separate wrongful death
count, but the complaint does not have one for assault or battery. Compl. ¶¶ 441–451. This is
similar to Barry II, where the directly injured plaintiffs recovered under only IIED and wrongful
death theories despite many of those plaintiffs likely having suffered assault or battery. See 437
F. Supp. 3d at 32, 44–46 (using only IIED and wrongful death as underlying tort theories for
§ 1605A(c) claims even though “each of the directly-injured Smith Plaintiffs suffered physical
injury such as head trauma, loss of hearing, severe lacerations,” and, for nine of the plaintiffs,
death). Regardless, even if the Court also analyzed assault and battery, “plaintiffs who have
claimed assault, battery, and IIED [under the FSIA-created cause of action] may recover under
only one of any such theories, as multiple recovery is prohibited.” Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 77.

                                                  32
Embassy Annex on September 20, 1984.” 22 Compl. ¶¶ 441–446. Second, the personal

representatives of those fatally injured in one of the attacks bring “wrongful death” claims and

seek to recover damages for Defendant’s conduct. Id. ¶¶ 447–451. The Court considers each

basis for liability in turn.

                               a. IIED Claims of Directly Injured Plaintiffs

        Taking the IIED claims first, general principles of tort law provide that “a defendant is

liable for IIED if its ‘extreme and outrageous conduct intentionally or recklessly causes severe

emotional distress’ to a plaintiff.” Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 177 (quoting Restatement

(Second) of Torts § 46(1)); see also Roth, 78 F. Supp. 3d at 400 (quoting Estate of Heiser v.

Islamic Republic of Iran (“Heiser II”), 659 F. Supp. 2d 20, 26 (D.D.C. 2009)). The same

analysis that this Court applied in Barry I with respect to the Barry Plaintiffs and Barry II with

respect to the directly injured Smith Plaintiffs applies with equal force for the directly injured

Plaintiffs. Here, as there, “the first element of the IIED tort—an extreme or outrageous act that

is intended to cause severe emotional distress—is plainly met” because an act of terrorism is,

“[b]y its very definition, . . . ‘extreme and outrageous and intended to cause the highest degree of

emotional distress.’” Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 177 (quoting Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 77);

        22
          Plaintiffs also move, under a separate count, for compensatory damages for loss of
solatium and/or loss of consortium. Compl. ¶¶ 452–456. Because, “[i]n the context of a suit
under the FSIA, courts in this Circuit have found IIED and solatium claims to be
‘indistinguishable,’” Lelchook v. Syrian Arab Republic (“Lelchook III”), No. CV 16-1550 (RC),
2019 WL 4673849, at *4 (D.D.C. Sept. 25, 2019) (quoting Estate of Heiser v. Islamic Republic
of Iran (“Heiser II”), 659 F. Supp. 2d 20, 27 n.4 (D.D.C. 2009)), and because, “[w]here there has
been only one injury, the law confers only one recovery, irrespective of the multiplicity of . . .
theories which the plaintiff pursues,” Kassman, 546 F.2d at 1034, the Court considers only the
IIED count with respect to all of Plaintiffs. The Court separately discusses solatium as a remedy
authorized by the FSIA infra Part IV.D. See 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(c)(4) (stating that damages in
suit pursuant to the statute’s private cause of action “may include economic damages, solatium,
pain and suffering, and punitive damages”).

                                                    33
see also Belkin v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 667 F. Supp. 2d 8, 22 (D.D.C. 2009). Accordingly,

the Court finds it self-evident that Iran’s role in both the 1983 and 1984 bombings was “intended

to cause the highest degree of emotional distress[:]” “terror.” Heiser II, 659 F. Supp. 2d at 26.

        Plaintiffs have, moreover, satisfied the second element of an IIED tort, which requires

evidence that Iran’s provision of material support or resources for the attacks caused them

“severe emotional distress.” The Special Master’s findings of fact make clear that the attack

directly caused a grave immediate and ongoing psychological toll. See generally R. & R. Based

on the undisputed record before it, the Court finds that these materials “establish . . . [the directly

injured Plaintiffs’] claim or right to relief by evidence satisfactory to the court,” 28 U.S.C.

§ 1608(e), in the manner that the FSIA demands. Thus, applying general IIED tort law

principles in the FSIA context, the Court concludes that the directly injured Plaintiffs have

established liability for this aspect of their claim.

                      b. Wrongful Death Claims of Directly Injured Plaintiffs

        The estates of ten individuals killed in one of the attacks also pursue relief under a

wrongful death cause of action. Compl. ¶¶ 8, 15, 26, 31, 40, 49, 55, 63, 70, 76. A wrongful-

death action is one brought by a decedent’s heirs at law, and may be brought through the estate

of the decedent, “for economic losses which result from a decedent’s premature death.” Roth, 78

F. Supp. 3d at 400 (quoting Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 78); see also Flatow v. Islamic Republic

of Iran, 999 F. Supp. 1, 27 (D.D.C. 1998). General tort law principles provide that “[v]ictims

may recover for their wrongful deaths if they can establish that the defendant[] caused their

deaths.” Thuneibat v. Syrian Arab Republic, 167 F. Supp. 3d 22, 39 (D.D.C. 2016).

        A number of courts in this district have applied those general principles in the context of

FSIA suits. See, e.g., Estate of Hirshfeld v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 330 F. Supp. 3d 107, 139

                                                   34
(D.D.C. 2018) (citing Restatement (Second) of Torts § 925); Braun, 228 F. Supp. 3d at 79;

Thuneibat, 167 F. Supp. 3d at 39; Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 78; see also Restatement (Second)

of Torts § 925, cmt. a (discussing the history of wrongful death at common law and noting that

an 1846 English statute was enacted to provide personal representatives of deceased parties with

“a cause of action against the one who tortiously caused the death, provided that the deceased

would have had a cause of action if he had been merely injured and not killed”). Applying that

analysis here, for the reasons detailed in the Court’s analysis of the FSIA’s waiver of sovereign

immunity, supra Part IV.A.1.b, the Court finds that Plaintiffs fatally injured in one of the attacks

have established that Defendant caused their deaths. Furthermore, each of the claims is

presented by the personal representative of that fatally injured individual’s estate. Thus, the

directly injured Plaintiffs have established liability for their wrongful death claim.

       Accordingly, all of the directly injured Plaintiffs have provided evidence to support entry

of default judgment in their favor for both their IIED and wrongful death claims.

                            2. Immediate Family Member Plaintiffs 23

       The Court is thus left with the claims of the immediate family members, who (with the

exception of several U.S. nationals) do not fall within the enumerated section 1605A(c)

categories. 24 As the Estate of Doe I court explained, although “those plaintiffs who are foreign

       23
          Because, as the Court established above, the wrongful death actions are brought
“through the estate of the decedent,” Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 78 (citing Flatow, 999 F. Supp.
at 27), and not on behalf of the immediate family member plaintiffs (all of whom bring
independent claims in association with the claims of an immediate family member who was
directly harmed by one or both attacks), only the IIED cause of action is relevant for this
category of Plaintiffs.
       24
          Plaintiffs’ filings and the Special Master’s findings of fact suggest that some
immediate family member Plaintiffs were U.S. nationals at the time of the attack. See, e.g.,
Compl. ¶ 10 (“Virginia Glover Maxwell, now deceased, was the mother of Ben Henry Maxwell,
who was killed as a result of the 1983 Beirut Embassy bombing. Virginia Glover Maxwell was,
at the time of the acts alleged herein, a U.S. citizen domiciled in Virginia.”). Such individuals

                                                 35
national family members of victims of the terrorist attacks in Beirut lack a federal cause of

action[,] . . . they may continue to pursue claims under applicable state and/or foreign law.” 808

F. Supp. 2d at 20. This is so because section 1605A’s creation of a new cause of action “did not

displace a claimant’s ability to pursue claims under applicable state or foreign law upon the

waiver of sovereign immunity.” Id. (citing Simon v. Republic of Iraq, 529 F.3d 1187, 1192 (D.C.

Cir. 2008), rev’d on other grounds, 556 U.S. 848 (2009)); see also 28 U.S.C. § 1606 (stating

that, once waiver of sovereign immunity is established under section 1605, “the foreign state

shall be liable in the same manner and to the same extent as a private individual under like

circumstances”); Oveissi v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Oveissi I”), 573 F.3d 835, 841 (D.C. Cir.

2009) (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 1606). Thus, the Court will evaluate whether Plaintiffs have

established liability under the relevant substantive standard. That substantive standard must be

determined by a choice of law analysis. But this Court in Barry II already conducted a choice of

law analysis using very similar facts to conclude that D.C. standards of liability should be

applied. See Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 47–50. The Court adopts the Barry II analysis to

conclude the same.

        The Court next applies District of Columbia law to the immediate family members’

claims for intentional infliction of emotional distress. 25 “D.C. law [for an IIED claim] enables

foreign-national family members of terrorist attack victims, including spouses, to recover

fall within section 1605A(c)’s enumerated categories in the manner discussed above for the
directly injured Plaintiffs. However, because—as the Court discusses next—the substantive
IIED theory of relief that applies to U.S. national immediate family members is functionally
identical to the substantive IIED theory of relief that applies to non-U.S. national immediate
family members, the Court addresses these individuals’ claims together in the following analysis.
        25
            For the reasons discussed above, this is the only theory of liability that (1) pertains to
this category of individuals and (2) is not duplicative of the underlying basis of the IIED claim
for relief.

                                                   36
solatium damages when their allegations are reinforced by the evidence.” Cohen, 238 F. Supp.

3d at 86 (citing Wamai v. Republic of Sudan, 60 F. Supp. 3d 84, 89–90 (D.D.C. 2014)). The

District of Columbia Court of Appeals has confirmed that the IIED elements established in the

Restatement (Second) of Torts provide the proper standard to apply. Republic of Sudan v.

Owens (“Owens III”), 194 A.3d 38, 41 (D.C. 2018). 26 As the Owens III court explained, the

“elements of an IIED claim arising from injury to a member of the plaintiff’s immediate family”

are established by section 46 of the Restatement, which sets out the following elements of IIED

liability:

        (1) One who by extreme and outrageous conduct intentionally or recklessly
        causes severe emotional distress to another is subject to liability for such
        emotional distress, and if bodily harm to the other results from it, for such bodily
        harm.

        (2) Where such conduct is directed at a third person, the actor is subject to
        liability if he intentionally or recklessly causes severe emotional distress

               (a) to a member of such person’s immediate family who is present at the
               time, whether or not such distress results in bodily harm, or

               (b) to any other person who is present at the time, if such distress results in
               bodily harm.

Id. (quoting Restatement (Second) of Torts § 46 (1965)).

        Affirming that the D.C. Court of Appeals “has embraced the Restatement Second’s

approach to IIED liability,” id., the Owens III court went on to clarify that a claimant who alleges

emotional distress arising from a terrorist attack that injured or killed a family member need not

have been present at the scene of the attack to state a cognizable IIED claim for relief, see id. at

        26
           In Owens III, the D.C. Court of Appeals answered a question that the Circuit certified
to it in Owens II: “Must a claimant alleging emotional distress arising from a terrorist attack that
killed or injured a family member have been present at the scene of the attack in order to state a
claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress?” Owens III, 194 A.3d at 41 (quoting
Owens II, 864 F.3d at 812).

                                                 37
42–45. In other words, the court “held that when emotional distress is caused by conduct

directed at a member of a plaintiff’s family, the plaintiff must,” as a general rule, be “‘present at

the time’ of the conduct in order to make out an IIED claim,” but also “carved out” what it called

“‘the FSIA Terrorism Exception’ to the presence requirement” in the limited context of “cases

brought under § 1605A.” Owens v. Republic of Sudan (“Owens IV”), 924 F.3d 1256, 1259 (D.C.

Cir. 2019) (quoting Owens III, 194 A.3d at 41–42). It found this exception to be permitted by

the comments to the Restatement itself. See Owens III, 194 A.3d at 42 (citing Restatement

(Second) of Torts § 46 (1965) Caveat & cmt. l). Thus, Owens III confirms that the same general

principles of tort law that govern the claims brought by the directly injured Plaintiffs within one

of 1605A’s enumerated categories also govern claims brought by the immediate family member

Plaintiffs who pursue their claims via District of Columbia law.

       Applying these principles to the family member Plaintiffs, the Court finds entry of default

concerning liability appropriate with respect to their IIED claims for the same reasons identified

previously with respect to the directly injured Plaintiffs. Here, it is again abundantly clear from

the facts available to the Court that Iran’s role in the 1983 and 1984 bombings was “intended to

cause the highest degree of emotional distress[:]” “terror,” Heiser II, 659 F. Supp. 2d at 26, and

the Special Master’s findings of fact again detail how one or both attacks created immediate and

ongoing pain and suffering for the family member Plaintiffs, see generally R. & R. Thus, based

on the undisputed record before it, the Court finds that these materials “establish . . . [the family

member Plaintiffs’] claim or right to relief by evidence satisfactory to the court,” 28 U.S.C.

§ 1608(e), and concludes that the family member Plaintiffs (except the two estates governed by

United Kingdom law) have established liability for their IIED claims.

                                                  38
                                           D. Damages

       Having granted default judgment on liability for all but two Plaintiffs, the remaining issue

facing the Court is the proper measure of damages to award. “The FSIA’s private cause of

action permits plaintiffs to seek ‘economic damages, solatium, pain and suffering, and punitive

damages.’” Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 179 (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(c)). 27 Here, all

Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages for “severe emotional distress” under an IIED cause of

action, see Compl. ¶¶ 441–446, and the personal representatives of the individuals who were

fatally wounded in one of the attacks also seek economic damages under a wrongful death cause

of action, id. ¶¶ 447–451. 28 In addition, Plaintiffs seek an award of prejudgment interest on all

damages. Id. at 166. Special Master Griffin has appraised the material submitted by all

Plaintiffs, including “signed, sworn affidavits, publicly available information, and an expert

report regarding economic damages.” R. & R. ¶ 6. Using this information to “independently and

holistically evaluate each claim for damages based on the contemporary statutory framework and

       27
           The FSIA requires plaintiffs to make an adequate evidentiary showing before a court
may award damages: “To obtain damages against defendants in a FSIA action, the plaintiff must
prove that the consequences of the defendants’ conduct were ‘reasonably certain’ (i.e., more
likely than not) to occur, and must prove the amount of the damages by a ‘reasonable estimate’
consistent with this [Circuit’s] application of the American rule on damages.’” Salazar v.
Islamic Republic of Iran, 370 F. Supp. 2d 105, 115–16 (D.D.C. 2005) (quoting Hill, 328 F.3d at
681); see also Wultz, 864 F. Supp. 2d at 37. For the reasons discussed previously, Plaintiffs have
established that Iran’s provision of material support and resources for an act of extrajudicial
killing was intended to injure individuals at the Embassy and Annex. Thus, they have
discharged their burden of proof to show that the consequences of Iran’s act were reasonably
certain, and the sole question for this Court is the damages amount.
       28
          Again, Plaintiffs also move under two other theories: count I directly invokes section
1605A(c)’s private right of action, Compl. ¶¶ 434–440, and count IV seeks relief under a
solatium/loss of consortium theory of relief, id. ¶¶ 452–456. Because these theories overlap with
the IIED and wrongful death claims, and because, “[w]here there has been only one injury, the
law confers only one recovery, irrespective of the multiplicity of . . . theories which the plaintiff
pursues,” Kassman, 546 F.2d at 1034, the Court considers only the IIED and wrongful death
theories of relief in its assessment of damages.

                                                 39
associated body of caselaw,” id. ¶ 3389 (quoting Sealed Mem. Op., Jones v. Islamic Republic of

Iran, No. 20-cv-00850 (RC), ECF No. 43 at 36 (D.D.C. June 13, 2022)), Special Master Griffin

has recommended damages awards for each of the Plaintiffs’ claims for relief, see generally R.

& R., App. A, ECF No. 34-1. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 53(f), the Plaintiffs

have moved the Court to adopt these recommendations, and Iran has not filed an objection. 29

See Pls.’ Mot. Adopt Special Master’s R. & R., ECF No. 35; see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 53(f)(2)

(“A party may file objections to—or a motion to adopt or modify—the master’s order, report, or

recommendations no later than 21 days after a copy is served, unless the court sets a different

time.”). Last, Plaintiffs move for an award of punitive damages. See Pls.’ Mot. at 24–27. For

the following reasons, the Court adopts many, but not all, of the Special Master’s

recommendations, enters judgment concerning damages as enumerated in the attached Appendix,

and awards punitive damages as discussed below.

                                  1. Compensatory Damages 30

                 a. Legal Standard for Compensatory Damages under the FSIA

       As other courts addressing similar suits under the FSIA have observed, “it is undeniably

difficult to assess the amount of compensatory damages for the pain and suffering of surviving

       29
          The Rules also require the Court to “give the parties notice and an opportunity to be
heard” before “acting on a master’s order, report, or recommendation.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 53(f)(1).
Here, notice was provided when the Special Master filed his report on the docket. Additionally,
the Special Master’s report and recommendation appears to be very similar to Plaintiffs’
Proposed Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law that they filed on the docket over seven
months ago. Pls.’ Proposed F.F. & C.L., ECF No. 30.
       30
          Again, “courts in this Circuit” addressing claims under the FSIA “have found IIED and
solatium claims to be ‘indistinguishable.’” Lelchook III, 2019 WL 4673849, at *4 (quoting
Heiser II, 659 F. Supp. 2d at 27 n.4). Technically speaking, the FSIA authorizes the award of
solatium damages to redress IIED claims for relief. See 28 U.S.C. § 1605A(c)(4) (“[D]amages
may include economic damages, solatium, pain and suffering, and punitive damages.”). The
Court’s analysis of IIED damages thus takes into account “prior decisions awarding damages for
intentional infliction of emotional distress as well as decisions regarding solatium.” Valore, 700

                                                40
victims of terrorist attacks, especially where severe mental anguish is involved.” Valencia v.

Islamic Republic of Iran, 774 F. Supp. 2d 1, 14 (D.D.C. 2010) (internal quotation marks omitted)

(quoting Brewer, 664 F. Supp. 2d at 57). Because of the importance of ensuring “that

individuals with similar injuries receive similar awards,” Peterson v. Islamic Republic of Iran,

515 F. Supp. 2d 25, 54 (D.D.C. 2007), abrogation on other grounds recognized by Mohammadi,

947 F. Supp. 2d at 67 n.16, courts in this jurisdiction confronting FSIA claims have developed a

framework for the calculation of compensatory damages, see Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 83–84.

Although the so-called Heiser framework, first set forth in Heiser I, 466 F. Supp. 2d 229, is non-

binding, it provides baseline figures and a basic methodology by which to ascertain the

“appropriate measure of damages” both for directly injured victims and for “the family members

of victims who died” or were injured in a terrorist attack. Lelchook III, 2019 WL 4673849, at *4

(quoting Peterson, 515 F. Supp. 2d at 51, 54); see also, e.g., Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 85–86

(noting “strong precedential support” for framework); Brewer v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 664 F.

Supp. 2d 43, 57–58 (D.D.C. 2009); Heiser II, 659 F. Supp. 2d at 27 n.4. “Decisions to deviate

from the starting points provided by the Heiser framework are committed to the discretion of the

particular court in each case.” Oveissi v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Oveissi II”), 768 F. Supp. 2d

16, 26 (D.D.C. 2011).

       Under the Heiser framework, a court begins with baseline amounts and may adjust

upward or downward to account for individual circumstances. For a directly injured claimant,

“[c]ourts generally ‘begin[] with the baseline assumption that persons suffering substantial

injuries in terrorist attacks are entitled to $5 million in compensatory damages.’” Barry I, 410 F.

F. Supp. 2d at 85 (quoting Acosta v. The Islamic Republic of Iran, 574 F. Supp. 2d 15, 29
(D.D.C. 2008)); see also Haim v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 425 F. Supp. 2d 56, 71 (D.D.C.
2006).

                                                41
Supp. 3d at 180 (quoting Wultz, 864 F. Supp. 2d at 37–38). An upward adjustment to the $7 to

$12 million range may be appropriate “in more severe instances of physical and psychological

pain, such as where victims suffered relatively more numerous and severe injuries, were

rendered quadriplegic, partially lost vision and hearing, or were mistaken for dead.” Valore, 700

F. Supp. 2d at 84. Conversely, a downward departure to the $1.5 million to $3 million range

may be appropriate “where victims suffered relatively more minor injuries, such as ‘minor

shrapnel injuries,’ or ‘severe emotional injury accompanied by relatively minor physical

injuries.’” Barry I, 410 F. Supp. 3d at 180 (first quoting Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 84, then

quoting Estate of Doe v. Islamic Republic of Iran (“Estate of Doe II”), 943 F. Supp. 2d 180, 186

(D.D.C. 2013)). Such awards for physical injuries “assume severe psychological injuries.”

Schertzman Cohen, 2019 WL 3037868, at *6 (citing Wamai, 60 F. Supp. 3d at 92–93).

However, if a directly injured claimant suffered only emotional injuries (as opposed to both

physical and emotional injuries), this Court has applied a slightly modified framework that

assumes a baseline compensatory award of $2 million (not $5 million). See Barry II, 437 F.

Supp. 3d at 58.

       For family member claimants, the relationship between the victim and the family member

who seeks relief determines the baseline amount of the award. See Peterson, 515 F. Supp. 2d at

51. As a starting point, the family of a deceased victim typically receives damages in the amount

of $8 million for a spouse, $5 million for a child or parent, and $2.5 million for a sibling.

Schooley v. Islamic Republic of Iran, No. 17-cv-1376, 2019 WL 2717888, at *77 (D.D.C. June

27, 2019). These amounts are halved for the family of an injured victim, with courts generally

awarding $4 million to a spouse, $2.5 million to a child or parent, and $1.25 million to a sibling.

Id. And the baseline amounts are further reduced in cases where the victim incurred only

                                                 42
emotional injuries as a result of the attack. Id. In such cases, this Court has applied a baseline

award of $1.5 million for a spouse, $1 million for a parent or child, and $500,000 for a sibling.

Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 58.

       In all situations, an upward adjustment may be appropriate “in cases ‘with aggravating

circumstances,’ indicated by such things as ‘[t]estimony which describes a general feeling of

permanent loss or change caused by decedent’s absence’ or ‘[m]edical treatment for depression

and related affective disorders.’” Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 85–86 (first quoting Greenbaum,

451 F. Supp. 2d at 108, then quoting Flatow, 999 F. Supp. at 31). Whether such an adjustment is

in order is a fact-specific inquiry that “cannot be defined through models and variables.”

Fraenkel, 892 F.3d at 357 (quoting Flatow, 999 F. Supp. at 29–30). For instance, for a claim

made by the family member of a decedent victim, a court may take into account, inter alia,

“[h]ow the claimant learned of [the] decedent’s death, and whether there was an opportunity to

say goodbye or view the body”; “[t]he nature of the relationship between the claimant and the

decedent,” particularly if it was “strong and close”; and the “decedent’s position in the family

birth order relative to the claimant.” Id. (quoting Flatow, 999 F. Supp. at 31–32). In parsing the

relevant facts, a district court is to bear in mind that “past solatium awards from comparable

cases are appropriate sources of guidance,” but “different plaintiffs (even under FSIA) will prove

different facts that may well (and should) result in different damage awards.” Id. at 362 (citation

omitted); see also Schooley, 2019 WL 2717888, at *77 (citing Fraenkel, 892 F.3d at 362).

                            b. The Special Master’s Damages Analysis

       The Special Master’s report and recommendation makes clear that he engaged in the

analysis contemplated by the Heiser framework as complemented by this Court’s discussion in

Barry II. See Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 58 (applying a reduced baseline award for victims and

                                                 43
family members when the victim only incurred emotional injury). Specifically, Special Master

Griffin states that “the well-established Heiser framework as adopted in . . . Barry is the proper

basis for assessing the damages to be awarded to Plaintiffs.” R. & R. ¶ 3388. He explains that

“[t]he Heiser framework provides baseline figures and a basic methodology by which to

ascertain the ‘appropriate measure of damages’ both for directly-injured victims and for ‘the

family members of victims who died’ or were injured in a terrorist attack.” Id. (quoting Barry II,

437 F. Supp. 3d at 53). And he adds that, where a victim suffered emotional injury alone, the

proper baseline awards are adjusted downward such that $2 million serves as the typical award to

the victim, $1.5 million to the victim’s spouse, $1 million to the victim’s parent or child, and

$500,000 to any of the victim’s siblings. Id. ¶¶ 3396, 3398.

       The Special Master then further explains that, in all events, courts may adjust specific

awards upward or downward to account for each plaintiff’s unique circumstances. Id. ¶ 3388. In

Barry II, the Court noted that the Special Master’s supplemental filing “clarified that each

upward departure is based on factors identified by courts in this district.” 437 F. Supp. 3d at 54

(citation omitted). Here, the Special Master’s report and recommendation makes clear that the

Special Master again operated under this framework. See R. & R. ¶¶ 3399, 3401 (detailing the

factors justifying upward departures and stating that “[t]he Special Master has applied [this]

framework to each family member victim”). Similarly, in Barry II, the Court noted that Special

Master Griffin had “augmented his original report with a description of the factual basis

underlying the proposed increase[s]” “for each of the forty recommended upward departures.”

437 F. Supp. 3d at 54. There is no such supplementation here, but the Special Master’s report

and recommendation does address its upward departures. See, e.g., R. & R. ¶ 57 (concluding

that “[a]n upward departure in the compensatory damages award to [Barbara Ann Maxwell]” is

                                                 44
appropriate because of the facts making her emotional injuries “uniquely agonizing and long-

lasting”); id. ¶ 92 (concluding that “[a]n upward departure in the compensatory damages award

to Yun Hui Twine” is appropriate because of the facts making her emotional injuries “uniquely

severe and long-lasting”). 31

       Having reviewed these materials, the Court is persuaded by the Special Master’s

analysis. 32 Because Special Master Griffin’s report and recommendation confirms that each

proposed upward departure reflects one or more of the factors that warrant such increases, the

Court agrees that an upward departure in the proposed amount is appropriate for the specified

       31
           The Special Master’s findings of fact rely on signed, sworn affidavits that provide
information about each of the victims. R. & R. ¶ 6. Although Special Master Griffin did not
“review[] any medical records regarding each victim’s injuries or otherwise independently
verif[y] any specific medical diagnosis,” he based his recommendations for upward departures
on “the uncontroverted sworn testimony” and “publicly available information, including medical
articles and literature, discussing the potential causal link between severe trauma such as each
victim’s experience in and as a result of the Beirut Embassy Attacks and the referenced medical
conditions.” Id. ¶ 8. His proposed damages “are based on a holistic review of the entirety of
each victim’s (and the victim’s family members’) testimony regarding” the impact of the attacks.
Id. ¶ 9.
       32
           Whether the evidence provided is adequate to support a plaintiff’s claim for relief is
left to the Court’s discretion. See Han Kim, 774 F.3d at 1047–48 (“[The] FSIA leaves it to the
court to determine precisely how much and what kinds of evidence . . . plaintiff[s] must provide,
requiring only that it be ‘satisfactory to the court.’” (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 1608(e))). In this case,
the Court is mindful that Congress intended, in providing a private right of action under section
1605A of the FSIA, to “compensate[] the victims of terrorism [and thereby] punish foreign states
who have committed or sponsored such acts and deter them from doing so in the future.” Id. at
1048 (quoting Price, 294 F.3d at 88–89). An overly stringent evidentiary standard would not
support this objective, particularly where, as here, the events at issue occurred nearly forty years
ago. See Fraenkel, 892 F.3d at 353 (“[T]he quantum and quality of evidence that might satisfy a
court [and allow a plaintiff to obtain default judgment in an action under the FSIA] can be less
than that normally required.” (citation omitted)). This Circuit has directed district courts to
exercise the “broad discretion” available to them “to determine what degree and kind of evidence
is satisfactory,” Maalouf v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 923 F.3d 1095, 1114 (D.C. Cir. 2019)
(citing Han Kim, 774 F.3d at 1047; Owens II, 864 F.3d at 785), “[s]o [that] the burden imposed
on district courts is moderated,” id. Thus, the Court is satisfied by the forms of evidence upon
which the Special Master has relied and adopts his findings of fact. Accord Roth, 78 F. Supp. 3d
at 386 (stating that a court resolving a suit brought under the FSIA “may rely on uncontroverted
factual allegations that are supported by affidavits” (citing Rimkus, 750 F. Supp. 2d at 171)).

                                                 45
individuals. Accordingly, the Court adopts all of the Special Master’s proposed compensatory

damages recommendations except for his recommendations regarding the estates governed by

English law.

       Before moving on, it is worth noting two particular recommendations that are

incorporated within the Court’s general adoption of the Special Master’s damages

recommendations. First, the Special Master recommends awarding independent awards under

the Heiser framework to forty-two family member Plaintiffs who “had the unique misfortune of

[having family members] suffer[] injuries as a result of both the 1983” and 1984 attacks. 33

R. & R. ¶ 3401 n.41. The Court addressed a similar, but different, question in Barry II: how to

calculate awards for “immediate family member Smith Plaintiffs who suffered the misfortune of

having more than one family member injured in a single attack.” 437 F. Supp. 3d at 55

(emphasis added). The Court declined to adopt the separate-awards approach for these plaintiffs

in Barry II because it was “concerned that combining multiple solatium awards would cause

family members of attack victims to recover larger solatium awards than most direct terrorist

attack victims recover in pain and suffering damages.” Id. at 56 (quoting Wultz, 864 F. Supp. 2d

at 40). But the Court emphasized that the concern related to family members recovering multiple

       33
         The specific family member Plaintiffs fitting this description are John Son LBrown,
Jane Mother LBrown, John Brother LBrown, Jane Sister1 LBrown, Jane Sister2 LBrown, Jane
Sister3 LBrown, Jane Sister4 LBrown, Jane Wife PBrown, John Son4 PBrown, John Son1
PBrown, John Son2 PBrown, John Son3 PBrown, Jane Daughter1 PBrown, Jane Daughter2
PBrown, Jane Daughter3 PBrown, John Son RBrown, Jane Wife VBrown, John Son1 VBrown,
John Son2 VBrown, Jane Wife GGBrown, John Son GGBrown, Jane Daughter1 GGBrown, Jane
Daughter2 GGBrown, Jane Daughter3 GGBrown, John Husband PPBrown, John Son PPBrown,
John Daughter1 PPBrown, Jane Daughter2 PPBrown, Jane Daughter3 PPBrown, John Brother
ZZBrown, Jane Sister ZZBrown, John Father IIIBrown, Jane Mother IIIBrown, John Brother1
IIIBrown, John Brother2 IIIBrown, John Brother3 IIIBrown, Jane Sister1 IIIBrown, Jane Sister2
IIIBrown, Jane Sister3 IIIBrown, Jane Sister4 IIIBrown, Jane Wife KKKBrown, Jane Daughter1
KKKBrown, and Jane Daughter2 KKKBrown. R. & R. ¶ 3401 n.41.

                                                46
solatium awards from a single attack. See id. at 55 (describing award adjustment as concerning

plaintiffs “having more than one family member injured in a single attack”); id. at 55 n.50 (“This

category is distinct from individuals who raise claims pursuant to both the 1983 and 1984

attacks.”); id. at 56 (citing authority regarding “[w]here multiple family members are all injured

in the same attack” (quoting Schertzman Cohen, 2019 WL 3037868, at *9). The fairness concern

from Barry II does not seem applicable here. Moreover, the Court adopted the approach that the

Special Master recommends in a prior case addressing the same issue. See Sealed Mem. Op.,

Jones, No. 20-cv-00850, ECF No. 43 at 42 n.30. Therefore, the Court adopts the Special

Master’s recommendation that separate and independent awards be issued to the family member

Plaintiffs whose loved ones were injured in both the 1983 and 1984 attacks.

       Second, the Special Master recommends awarding the estate of John Victim Brown (an

individual who died in the 1983 attack) compensatory damages for the pain and suffering he

endured during the period between his injury and death. R. & R. ¶¶ 175–177, 3393. Unlike a

wrongful death action, a so-called “survival action accrues upon the death of an injured person

and ‘limits recovery for damages for loss or impairment of earning capacity, emotional distress

and all other harms, to harms suffered before death.’” Estate of Hirshfeld, 330 F. Supp. 3d at

139 (quoting Restatement (Second) of Torts § 926). In order for a plaintiff who was killed in the

attack to recover such damages, he must show that his death was not “instantaneous” and that he

“consciously experienced the time between [the] attack and his . . . death.” Roth, 78 F. Supp. 3d

at 402; see Barry II, 437 F. Supp. 3d at 45 n.36 (explaining that plaintiff must show that he

experienced “pain and suffering before death”). Here, the complaint states a claim for a

“survival” action, Compl. at 164, and the Special Master’s factual findings cite uncontroverted

evidence suggesting that John Victim Brown’s death was not instantaneous, that he was

                                                47
conscious for a period of time, and that he experienced pain and suffering before succumbing to

his injuries. See, e.g., R. & R. ¶ 176 (explaining that although the victim was “buried . . . under

the rubble,” his body bore no “obvious external injuries,” making it “reasonable to conclude”

that his death was “not instantaneous” but rather the result of “asphyxiation”); id. at ¶ 3393

(explaining that “[t]he lack of other injuries indicates that [John Victim Brown] was conscious

during the period that he was trapped”). That being so, his estate is entitled to claim survival

damages.

                                      2. Economic Damages

                                        a. Wrongful Death

       The Court now considers the wrongful death claims brought on behalf of Plaintiffs who

were fatally wounded in one of the attacks, and on behalf of whom the legal representative of

each estate seeks to recover for economic loss. 34 See Compl. ¶¶ 452–456. The FSIA authorizes

“[a] wrongful-death action” to be “brought through the estate of the decedent[] ‘for economic

losses which result from a decedent’s premature death.’” Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 78 (quoting

Flatow, 999 F. Supp. at 27); see also Murphy v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 740 F. Supp. 2d 51, 74

(D.D.C. 2010). To provide support for such a claim for relief, “the report of a forensic

economist may provide a reasonable basis for determining the amount of economic damages.”

Reed v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 845 F. Supp. 2d 204, 214 (D.D.C. 2012); see also Belkin, 667

       34
          The ten Plaintiffs who pursue this theory of relief are Ben Henry Maxwell, Compl. ¶ 8,
Richard Twine, id. ¶ 15, John Victim Brown, id. ¶ 26, John Victim ABrown, id. ¶ 31, John
Victim BBrown, id. ¶ 40, John Victim CBrown, id. ¶ 49, John Victim DBrown, id. ¶ 55, John
Victim EBrown, id. ¶ 63, John Victim FBrown, id. ¶ 70, and John Victim GBrown, id. ¶ 76.
Because, as discussed previously, Plaintiffs have already established Defendant’s liability for the
tort of wrongful death, and because these ten individuals were U.S. service members,
government employees, or contractors at the time of the attack, Compl. ¶¶ 8, 15, 26, 31, 40, 49,
55, 63, 70, 76, and thus fall within section 1605A(c)’s enumerated categories, the Court looks
exclusively to section 1605A(c) in its damages analysis.

                                                 48
F. Supp. 2d at 24 (relying on forensic economist’s report in calculation of economic damages).

A court that relies upon such an expert report is to assess the “reasonableness and foundation of

the assumptions relied upon by the expert.” Roth, 78 F. Supp. 3d at 402 (citing Reed, 845 F.

Supp. 2d at 214).

       Here, the Special Master’s report and recommendation states that he relied on such an

expert report to make economic damages recommendations. Specifically, Special Master Griffin

assessed a report provided by Steven A. Wolf, a CPA who assessed “the present value dollar

amount of each individual’s past and future income loss directly attributable to [his or her]

premature death . . . as compared to [his or her] planned or anticipated employment opportunities

if the plaintiff would have lived a typical life in Lebanon.” R. & R. ¶ 3391 (citation omitted).

Mr. Wolf is the same expert who assessed economic damages in not only Barry II, 437 F. Supp.

3d at 59, Dammarell I, 281 F. Supp. 2d at 120, and Estate of Doe II, 943 F. Supp. 2d at 185, see

also R. & R. ¶ 3391, but also in other FSIA cases such as Owens v. Republic of Sudan (“Owens

I”), 71 F. Supp. 3d 252, 258 (D.D.C. 2014), and Reed, 845 F. Supp. 2d at 214. The Special

Master explains that “Wolf’s calculations rely on ‘each victim’s historical earnings history,

employment record, economic statistics, employment and wage certification documentation . . . ,

[and] testimonial evidence via affidavits presented by the individual victims’ families, among

other sources.” R. & R. ¶ 3391 (citation omitted). His projections “‘use conservative financial

assumptions’ such as a fixed employment status and income level.” Id. (citation omitted).

Moreover, the specific methodology “employed to calculate economic losses is the same” as the

one that Mr. Wolf used in Barry II, Dammarell, and Estate of Doe. Id. Special Master Griffin

indicates that the expert report itself is “similar to reports previously approved by this Court and

others in this district in other FSIA cases, including cases involving claims by colleagues of

                                                 49
Plaintiffs based on the 1983 Attack.” Id. (citation omitted). Based on the uncontroverted record

before it, the Court accepts Special Master Griffin’s conclusions concerning the report, the

methodology adopted therein, and his associated recommendations and, accordingly, adopts the

proposed economic damages awards for the estates of Plaintiffs killed in the attacks.

                             b. One Survivor’s Economic Damages

       There is one additional aspect of the Special Master’s report and recommendation

regarding economic damages that warrants analysis. Specifically, although most of the Plaintiffs

who were injured in one or both of the attacks on the Embassy seek only to recover for their pain

and suffering, one Plaintiff who was injured in the 1984 attack—John Victim YYBrown—also

seeks to recover economic damages for “lost income” resulting from injuries he incurred during

the bombing. R. & R. ¶ 3391. Courts in this district have held that victims injured in the attacks

“may recover economic damages, which typically include lost wages (both past and future),

benefits and retirement pay, and other out-of-pocket expenses.” Bluth, 203 F. Supp. 3d at 24; see

Valore, 700 F. Supp. 2d at 85 (awarding damages to victims for “lost wages resulting from

permanent and debilitating injuries suffered in the attack”); Fain v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 885

F. Supp. 2d 78, 82 (D.D.C. 2012) (same); Murphy, 740 F. Supp. 2d at 78 (same). Here, John

Victim YYBrown “suffered extensive and permanent injuries as a result of” the attack that left

him unable to “pursue his degree or career as a research professor.” R. & R. ¶¶ 2623–33. Based

on the information provided to him, Mr. Wolf concluded that John Victim YYBrown had

suffered economic damages of approximately $4,568,876.00 in lost income and medical

expenses. See Report of Steven A. Wolf, ECF No. 24-1 at 29. The Special Master, too, was

persuaded both by the evidence of Mr. YYBrown’s injury and the size of his economic loss as

assessed by Mr. Wolf. Accordingly, the Special Master recommends that John Victim

                                                50
YYBrown receive economic damages of $4,568,876.00, in addition to his award for pain and

suffering. R. & R. ¶¶ 2634. The uncontroverted record supports the Special Master’s

recommendation on this aspect of the matter, and the Court therefore adopts it.

                                      3. Prejudgment Interest

        In Barry II, the Court provided a thorough explanation of why it declined to award

prejudgment interest to those plaintiffs. See 437 F. Supp. 3d at 60–63. This analysis included

recognizing that “[c]ourts in this Circuit have split on whether an award of prejudgment interest

on compensatory damages is appropriate in FSIA suits,” id. at 60; recognizing that prejudgment

interest would be duplicative for economic damages already “adjusted to reflect present-day

dollar amounts,” id. at 60–61 (citation omitted); and looking to the Restatement of Torts for

relevant guidance on “the basic principles of tort law,” id. at 61–62. The Court continues to find

its analysis in Barry II persuasive, and therefore adopts it in this case concerning similarly

situated plaintiffs.

                                       4. Punitive Damages

        One notable difference between this case and Barry II is that Plaintiffs here move for an

award of punitive damages. See Pls.’ Mot. at 24–27. The Smith plaintiffs in Barry II did not do

so presumably because in Barry I this Court quickly dispensed with the Barry plaintiffs’ motion

for punitive damages based on the then-current “law of this Circuit” that “‘the FSIA terrorism

exception does not retroactively authorize the imposition of punitive damages against a

sovereign for conduct occurring before the passage of § 1605A’ in 2008.” Barry I, 410 F. Supp.

3d at 179 (quoting Owens II, 864 F.3d at 812). The 1983 and 1984 bombings occurred well

before 2008, so the Court concluded that the Barry plaintiffs could not be awarded punitive

damages under the FSIA terrorism exception. Id. The Court also noted that this would be the

                                                 51
case under either state or federal causes of action. See id. n.10 (“[A] plaintiff proceeding under

either state or federal law cannot recover punitive damages for conduct occurring prior to the

enactment of § 1605A.” (quoting Owens II, 864 F.3d at 818)). However, the Supreme Court has

since vacated Owens II, holding that “Congress was as clear as it could have been when it

authorized plaintiffs to seek and win punitive damages for past conduct using § 1605A(c)’s new

federal cause of action.” Opati v. Republic of Sudan, 140 S. Ct. 1601, 1608 (2020); see also id.

at 1610 (stating that the Court has “decided that punitive damages are permissible for federal

claims”); Akins v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 549 F. Supp. 3d 104, 110 (D.D.C. 2021) (“Congress’

2008 amendments . . . authorized plaintiffs suing under § 1605A(c) to seek punitive damages for

pre-2008 conduct.” (citations omitted)); Christie v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 2020 WL 3606273,

at *20 (D.D.C. July 2, 2020) (“Congress clearly authorized plaintiffs suing under § 1605A(c) to

seek punitive damages for pre-2008 conduct.” (citation omitted)). Plaintiffs’ request for

retroactive punitive damages for § 1605(c) claims must therefore be resolved on the merits.

       Similarly, Plaintiffs’ request for retroactive punitive damages for their state-law claims

must also be resolved on the merits. As this Court has previously explained, whether a Plaintiff

can seek and receive retroactive punitive damages on state-law-based claims presents a

somewhat murky question. In Owens II, the D.C. Circuit refused to allow punitive damages for

the state law claims for “the same reason” as the federal claims and because “it would be

‘puzzling’ if punitive damages were permissible for state claims but not federal ones.” Opati,

140 S. Ct. at 1610 (quoting Owens II, 864 F.3d at 817). Opati, however, found that Owens II’s

reasoning was “mistaken” as to the federal claims, and therefore ordered the D.C. Circuit to

“reconsider its decision concerning the availability of punitive damages for claims proceeding

under state law.” Id. On remand, the D.C. Circuit ordered the parties to brief the availability of

                                                52
punitive damages for state-law claims. Order, Owens II, Doc. No. 1853544 (July 27, 2020).

After submitting their supplemental briefs, however, the parties subsequently reached a

settlement and obtained dismissal of the appeal, so the D.C. Circuit did not have occasion to rule

on the question. Order, Owens II, Doc. No. 1941574 (Apr. 1, 2022). Because the D.C. Circuit

“vacated all of the awards of punitive damages” “under both state and federal law,” Owens, 864

F.3d at 812, 818, and Opati in turn “vacated” “[t]he judgment of the court of appeals with respect

to punitive damages,” 140 S. Ct. at 1610, Owens II’s ruling on the availability of retroactive

punitive damages for state-law claims is no longer binding.

       Plaintiffs have not brought to the Court’s attention any subsequent decision by the D.C.

Circuit on this question, and the Court has not located any. That said, a number of district courts

(including this one) have grappled with the issue post-Opati and, in doing so, have concluded

that retroactive punitive damages may be awarded on state-law claims. See Sealed Mem. Op.,

Jones, No. 20-cv-00850, ECF No. 43 at 47–52 (explaining why statutory text, structure,

legislative history, and the reasoning in Opati all lead to the conclusion that Congress intended to

enable plaintiffs to seek punitive damages based on state-law claims); see also Order, Sheikh v.

Republic of Sudan, No. 14-cv-2090 (JDB), ECF No. 100 at 5–9 (D.D.C. Nov. 9, 2022) (holding

that “retroactive punitive damages are available to state law claimants for the same reasons they

are available to federal law claimants under § 1605A”). The Court continues to find its prior

analysis persuasive, and, as a result, will address Plaintiffs’ request for retroactive punitive

damages under their state-law claims on the merits.

       Having established that Plaintiffs are eligible for retroactive punitive damages for both

their federal and state-law claims, the Court proceeds to determine the amount of their awards.

“Courts calculate the proper amount of punitive damages by considering four factors: (1) the

                                                  53
character of the defendants’ act, (2) the nature and extent of harm to the plaintiffs that the

defendants caused or intended to cause, (3) the need for deterrence, and (4) the wealth of the

defendants.” Opati v. Republic of Sudan, 60 F. Supp. 3d 68, 81 (D.D.C. 2014) (citation omitted);

Flatow, 999 F. Supp. at 32 (identifying these four factors as governing punitive damages under

“[g]eneral principles of tort law” (citing Restatement (Second) of Torts § 908)). It is easy to

conclude that these factors justify punitive damages here. Little needs to be said about the

horrendous character of the 1983 and 1984 bombings nor the nature and extent of the harm

caused. See, e.g., Brewer, 664 F. Supp. 2d at 59 (awarding $300 million in punitive damages

against Iran for 1984 Embassy Annex bombing with little analysis). It is also clear that there is a

high need for deterrence of terrorist attacks and that a sovereign nation such as Iran possesses

significant wealth. See Ewan v. Islamic Republic of Iran, 466 F. Supp. 3d 236, 251 (D.D.C.

2020) (awarding punitive damages for 1983 Embassy bombing after concluding that all four

factors support awarding punitive damages). However, “[r]ecurrent awards in case after case

arising out of the same facts can financially cripple a defendant, over-punishing the same

conduct through repeated awards with little additional deterrent effect.” Murphy, 740 F. Supp.

2d at 81; see also Ewan, 466 F. Supp. 3d at 251 (“This question becomes doubly complicated

when trying to assess the proper award of punitive damages in a case subsequent to others that

already imposed punitive damages for the same incident.”). The concern about over-punishing

and questionable deterrent effect is present here seeing as punitive damages have been awarded

in many previous cases arising from the Beirut Embassy attacks. See, e.g., Sealed Mem. Op.,

Jones, No. 20-cv-00850, ECF No. 43 at 54; Wagner, 172 F. Supp. 2d at 138; Brewer, 664 F.

Supp. 2d at 58–59; Estate of Doe II, 943 F. Supp. 2d at 189–91; Ewan, 466 F. Supp. 3d at 251–

       The courts that have awarded punitive damages arising from the Beirut Embassy attacks

have varied in their approaches to calculating the proper amount of such damages. No one

approach, however, is significantly more persuasive or dominant in the case law than others. For

example, in a number of prior cases, courts were persuaded to award $300 million in punitive

damages—a sum representing “three times the amount of the most current estimates of Iran’s

annual expenditures” on terrorism. Wagner, 172 F. Supp. 2d at 137–38 (collecting cases); see

Brewer, 664 F. Supp. 2d at 58–59. More recently, however, courts have calculated punitive

damages based on “the ratio of the prior award of punitive damages [in cases arising out of the

1983 bombing] relative to the prior award of compensatory damages [in cases arising out of the

same incident].” Ewan, 466 F. Supp. 3d at 252; see Murphy, 740 F. Supp. 2d at 82. That

methodology yields a ratio of $0.03699 of punitive damages for every $1 of compensatory

damages. Ewan, 466 F. Supp. 3d at 252. The Plaintiffs argue that application of “the same ratio

is appropriate here.” Pls.’ Mot. at 27. In light of the recency of Ewan and the fact that it

addressed one of the same attacks at issue here, the Court will use Ewan’s ratio of $0.03699 of

punitive damages for every $1 of compensatory damages. The sum of compensatory damages

reported in the Appendix is $1,189,694,232.00. Therefore, Plaintiffs will be awarded punitive

damages in the amount of $44,006,789.64. “The Court will apportion punitive damages among

plaintiffs according to their compensatory damages.” Opati, 60 F. Supp. 3d at 82; see also

Order, Opati, No. 12-cv-1224 (D.D.C. July 24, 2015), ECF No. 44 (apportioning punitive

damages without distinction among state and federal claims); W.A. v. Islamic Republic of Iran,

2020 WL 7869218, at *20 (D.D.C. Mar. 23, 2020) (same).

                                  *              *               *

                                                 55
       Summing up, then, the Court awards over $1.1 billion in compensatory damages

(including economic, pain & suffering, and solatium) to Plaintiffs, adopting almost all of the

proposals indicated by the Special Master as discussed above and as reflected in the attached

Appendix, and will further award over $44 million in punitive damages to be divided among

Plaintiffs in proportion to their compensatory damages using the Ewan ratio. All in all, the

Court’s award totals over $1.2 billion. Although no dollar figure can redress what Plaintiffs have

suffered, the Court hopes that this award brings some small measure of resolution to these

families.

                                       V. CONCLUSION

       For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiffs’ motion for default judgment on liability and an

award of punitive damages (ECF No. 29) is GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART;

Plaintiffs’ motion to substitute (ECF No. 20) is GRANTED; Plaintiffs’ motion to adopt the

Special Master’s Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 35) is GRANTED IN PART AND

DENIED IN PART; and the Special Master’s report and recommendation is ADOPTED IN

PART. An order consistent with this Memorandum Opinion is separately and

contemporaneously issued.
