non obstante veredicto

non obstante veredicto
non obstante veredicto (N.O.V.)
/non abstaentiy vehradiktow/
notwithstanding the verdict
A judgment entered by order of court for the plaintiff (or defendant) although there has been a verdict for the defendant (or plaintiff). Judgment non obstante veredicto in its broadest sense is a judgment rendered in favor of one party notwithstanding the finding of a verdict in favor of the other party. A motion for a directed verdict is a prerequisite to a subsequent grant of judgment notwithstanding the verdict. Fed.R. Civil P. 50.
Judgment non obstante veredicto originally, at common law, was a judgment entered for plaintiff "notwithstanding the verdict" for defendant; which could be done only, after verdict and before judgment, where it appeared that defendant's plea confessed the cause of action and set up matters in avoidance which, although verified by the verdict, were insufficient to constitute a defense or bar to the action. But either by statutory enactment or because of relaxation of the early commonlaw rule, the generally prevailing rule now is that either plaintiff or defendant may have a judgment non obstan, te veredicto in proper cases
