Heading: the jury’s failure to follow instructions

Text: Finally, Prison Health asserts that it deserves a new trial because the jury did not follow the jury instructions. Prison Health describes this argument as follows: [T]he jury could not have followed the Jury Instructions because it found that both Allen and Richards were not aware of Fields’ serious medical need and, therefore, could not have found that any PHS policy or custom causing [sic] them to deny him necessary medical care for that serious medical need. Reply Br. at 11. If this is its argument, then Prison Health is again arguing that the jury rendered an inconsistent verdict. But, as already explained above, Prison Health forfeited that argument. 27 Case: 11-14594 Date Filed: 09/06/2012 Page: 28 of 28
