It's chump change for Redskins owner Dan Snyder and his wife, Tanya. But a Montgomery County jury yesterday handed a victory of sorts to Juliette Mendonca, the Snyders' former nanny: $44,880 in overtime pay, after two days of testimony about the inner workings of the Snyder household.

Mendonca was hired in April 2003 to work weekends watching the Snyders' three young children, joining a staff that included a full-time day nanny, two housekeepers, a house manager, chef, driver and personal assistant.
