If you don’t want to wade through that Rule 50 posting here is the layman’s definition for a “Directed Verdict”

Once a case is heard by a jury. Either side may ask for a Directed verdict in which the judge will “direct” the jury to find in a certain way because either the plaintiffs case is overwhelming ( find in favor of plaintiff) or the plaintiffs case is lacking in some legal (by law) standard for an affirmative verdict to be rendered for the plaintiff. In other words “direct” the jury to find in favor of the defendant.

The short a sweet version.

As you can see. It’s not a likely outcome. Which I had eluded to in my post when I said “doubt it will happen”
