EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

JONESBORO DIVISION

NUCOR CORPORATION PLAINTIFF/

COUNTERDEFENDANT

V. 3:08CV00067 JMM

J. BAKER & ASSOCIATES, INC. DEFENDANT/

COUNTERCLAIMANT/

 THIRD PARTY PLAINTIFF

V.

NUCOR-YAMATO STEEL CO. THIRD PARTY DEFENDANT

ORDER

Pending is Nucor Corporation’s Renewed Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law. JBA

has responded.

At the close of trial on December 10, 2009 Nucor made an oral motion for judgment as a

matter of law. The Court interpreted this motion to include JBA’s claims relating to Friedman. 

However, the Court finds that there was sufficient evidence from which the jury could

reasonably conclude that JBA was entitled to the partnership fee relating to the Friedman

Chargeback. Therefore, Nucor’s motion for judgment as a matter of law (Docket # 95) is

DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 5th day of January, 2010.
