Allied Bank-West, N.A., and First Interstate Bank of Texas, N.A. v. Russell Stein, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc.

Court of Appeals for the First Circuit

Decided October 15, 1993No. 91-6193PublishedCited by 35 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

W. EUGENE DAVIS, Circuit Judge:

Allied Bank-West sought damages from Merrill Lynch for failing to honor its commitment to replace pledged securities. After trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Allied Bank. The district court then entered a judgment notwithstanding the verdict in favor of Merrill Lynch. Because Merrill Lynch did not argue or present evidence to support the defense on which the court granted JNOV, we vacate the court’s entry of JNOV with instructions to reinstate the judgment on the jury’s verdict. We also vacate the district court’s alternative grant of a new trial.
