A Texas federal jury dismissed on Monday most of the voter intimidation claims against a group of Trump supporters involved in surrounding a Biden-Harris campaign bus on Interstate 35 just days before the 2020 presidential election, the Associated Press reported.

A jury found Eliazar Cisneros liable while clearing five others in a civil case involving the “Trump Train,” which surrounded and slowed a Biden-Harris campaign bus between San Antonio and Austin, according to the AP. The court ordered Cisneros, whose vehicle made contact with a volunteer’s car while participating in the convoy, to pay the bus driver, Tim Holloway, $10,000 in damages and an additional $30,000 in punitive damages.

“We’re just ready to feel like normal people again,” Joeylynn Mesaros, one of the defendants, said, the AP reported. “It’s been a thousand something days to have our day in court.”

Holloway emphasized that the initial complaint was not politically motivated, according to the AP.

“When I came to this case it was never about politics that day. I’m grateful, I’m proud of my team,” Holloway said.

No criminal charges were filed against the participants of the “Trump Train” and attorneys for Cisneros announced plans to appeal the verdict, according to the AP.

The jury began deliberations Sept. 20 to determine whether the “Trump Train” convoy constituted political intimidation during the tense highway incident, according to the AP. The two-week civil trial included testimony from former Texas Democratic lawmaker Wendy Davis and two other passengers on the bus, who filed the lawsuit against the six Trump supporters.
