MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
GORTON, District Judge.
In August, 2002, a jury returned a verdict in favor of plaintiff Carl Huber (“Huber”) for $5 million for injuries he sustained as a result of the breach of an implied warranty of merchantability by defendant JLG Industries, Inc. (“JLG”). The breach was with respect to either a design defect in, or a failure to warn in the instructions accompanying, JLG’s AM-24 AccessMaster manlift. The jury assessed 60% of the award ($3 million) for the partial seizure disorder that Huber sustained thereby.
JLG now moves this Court for judgment as a matter of law…
