CUDAHY, Circuit Judge.
In this civil rights action, plaintiff Thomas Crowder, a former inmate at the Indiana State Prison, appeals from the entry of a directed verdict which denied liability as to all defendants except one and which removed from jury consideration all constitutional issues except plaintiff’s eighth amendment claim. Crowder also appeals from a jury verdict in favor of the one remaining defendant, Warden Russell Lash, on the eighth amendment issue, alleging various procedural and evidentiary errors. We affirm in part, and reverse in part.
