This form is the response by the defendant to the motion for a judgement notwithstanding the verdict, or, in the alternative, for a new trial filed by the plaintiff.
Yes, if your motion for a new trial is granted, the court usually schedules a new trial, which means you’ll have to present your case again in front of a new jury.
Common reasons include errors made by the judge, new evidence that wasn’t available at the trial, or juror misconduct.
In Texas, you typically have 30 days after the judgment is entered to file a Motion for JNOV.
Once you file a Motion for JNOV, the court will review the motion and the trial evidence to decide whether to grant or deny it.
You can file a JNOV in civil cases, but it’s not applicable in all situations, especially in criminal cases.
Someone might file for a new trial if they believe there was a mistake in how the trial was conducted or if new evidence comes to light that could change the outcome.
A Motion for JNOV is a request made to the court asking it to overturn a jury's verdict because there isn’t enough evidence to support the decision.
