Ahh yes the usual resort to playing word games. When you have not got a leg to stand on redefine meanings and obfusicate the issue.
I'll take it thats a no, you don't realize the difference.
Obviously, while he may have disagreed with the verdict, he did NOT think it had no legal grounds as he sustained the verdict . Hence putting the lie to your idiotic claims that he didn't have the power to do so.
In North Carolina cases involving anything over 10,000 dollars are heard in Superior Court. In Superior Court when a Jury is used, a Judge may NOT set aside a Jury decision. The Judge does have the power to determine sentence and alter jury awards though.
Thus in the case of the malpractice suit the Judge had no power to set aside the Verdict. he did however have the power to alter the damages awarded, in this case he did so citing a lack of evidence to sustain the award and THE DECISION. The final award was less then the Jury authorized but more then the Judge recommended, which suggests ( without reading the case) that either arbitration occurred or appeal occurred.
I am having trouble finding the applicable State law in question ( or laws) what I do have is a PDF file that in side it states that in Superior Court Juries make the decision on "guilt" or "innocence" and Judges determine the punishment.

It is down a bit in a section titled State Courts.
I notice larkinn vanished when I posted this information. But now I am sure he will be right back.
The Judge STATED for the record that the Jury decision was in his opinion in error due to a lack of evidence. THAT is a recorded fact.
What?
However, he did NOT feel that it was so incorrect as to overturn the jury. This is also a fact.
