Morton A. KIER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. COMMERCIAL UNION INSURANCE COMPANIES, Defendant-Appellee
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
BAUER, Chief Judge.
The jury returned a verdict for plaintiff in his age discrimination suit, and awarded $77,227.00 against his employer. Plaintiff claimed that his employer violated the Age Discrimination and Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. (“ADEA”). The district court found the jury verdict unsupportable and entered judgment for the defendant notwithstanding the verdict. Plaintiff, Morton Kier, appeals. We find that a reasonable jury could not conclude that the defendant had violated ADEA and we therefore affirm the order of the district court.
