Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a jury returns a verdict, the winning party typically requests that the court enter a judgment in accordance with the verdict, which means the court will officially recognize the verdict and enter a final judgment in favor of the winning party. There is no indication that Kettle has any grounds to request a judgment n.o.v., a judgment on the pleadings, or a new trial.
