What is a JNOV motion?

A judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV) is a judgment by the trial judge after a jury has issued a verdict, setting aside the jurys verdict and entering a judgment in favor of the losing party without a new trial. A JNOV is very similar to a directed verdict except for the timing within a trial.

What is Jnov law?

In American courts, JNOV is the practice whereby the presiding judge in a civil jury trial may overrule the decision of a jury and reverse or amend their verdict. In literal terms, the judge enters a judgment notwithstanding the jury verdict.

Can a federal judge overturn a jury verdict?

In any trial the judge is the ultimate decision maker and has the power to overturn a jury verdict if there is insufficient evidence to support that verdict or if the decision granted inadequate compensatory damages.

What is the purpose of motion for JNOV?

This motion argues that no reasonable jury could docHub the verdict that the jury in this case just did. In other words, it claims that the jury did not follow proper instructions and ruled for the opposing party based on legally insufficient evidence.

Which motion is made after the jury has returned a verdict?

A motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict is the equivalent in civil cases to the motion in arrest of judgment. It may be made after the jurys decision is announced but before a judgment is entered. This motion asks the judge to enter a judgment for the losing party despite the decision of the jury.
