Discuss the holding and why the court held that way

Reference no: EM133335628

Case Study: So far we have learned how to choose the proper court (Personal, Subject Matter Jurisdiction, and Venue) and how to initiate a lawsuit (Service of Process) and all the pre-trial matters (Motions, Discovery) involved in civil practice.

This week's readings and contents present another way a case can escape the effect of a full (or jury) trial: Judgment as a Matter of Law and Judgment Notwithstanding the Verdict (j.n.o.v).

Question:

Find a case that has a successful JNOV (judgment notwithstanding the verdict) or Judgment as a matter of law. You can pick one from the readings for this week, if you wish.
Provide a summary of the case facts and the issue before the court.
Then discuss the holding and why the court held that way.
Then, discuss whether you think the court was correct in its rule of law or not.
