The New Jersey Supreme Court won’t consider reinstating a $166 million verdict against the state in the case of an infant who was severely abused by his father after child-welfare authorities declined to remove him from the home.

The jury award came in 2013 in the case of Jadiel Velesquez, who at the age of 4 months was left blind and cognitively disabled after his father violently shook him to stop him from crying.
