|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Marcano Rivera v.

| 2 | Osorio v. ONE WORLD TECHNOLOGIES, INC. | green | “the evidence presented to the jury, and all reasonable inferences that may be drawn from such evidence, in the light most favorable to the jury verdict.” | 5 |

| 4 | Jennings v. Jones | green | “is much broader than its power to grant a motion for judgment as a matter of law.” | 4 |
| 5 | Doris Velez Vda. De Perez, Etc. v. Hospital Del Maestro, Appeal of Dr. Carmen De Leon | green | “when an argument that the evidence was insufficient forms the basis of a motion for new trial, the district court is generally well within the bounds of its discretion in denying the motion using the same reasoning as in its denial of a motion for judgment as a matter of law.” | 4 |
