1Opinion of the Court
SHEPHERD, Circuit Judge.
Appellee Alvin Howard brought this negligence action against Missouri Bone and Joint Center, Inc. (“MBJC”), alleging that MBJC’s negligence caused the back injury Howard sustained in 2001. The jury returned a verdict for Howard, after which MBJC filed a motion for judgment as a matter of law or for new trial. The district court 1 overruled that motion and this appeal followed.
