Casey v. Sevy

*14WALTERS, Chief Judge.

A jury found both Patrick Sevy and his father, Ralph Sevy, liable for damages in an action brought by Michael and Debi Casey following a collision between Patrick’s truck and Michael’s motorcycle. Ralph Sevy moved for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, or, in the alternative, for a new trial. When the district court denied Ralph’s motions, Ralph brought this appeal. We reverse the order, and direct the district court to vacate the judgment entered in favor of the Caseys and to enter judgment for Ralph Sevy.
