                Appeals from the United States District Court
                    for the Southern District of Florida
                       ________________________

                            (October 31, 2006)

Before TJOFLAT, BLACK and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
      The district court denied appellant’s motion for judgment as a matter of law

notwithstanding the jury’s verdict and alternative motion for a new trial on the

issue of damages. The court denied the motion for judgment as a matter of law

because the evidence did not point so overwhelmingly in favor of the plaintiff that

a reasonable jury could not return a verdict for the defendants. After reviewing

the relevant portions of the trial transcript, we agree with the district court and

thus affirm its ruling.

      AFFIRMED.
