Heading: sufficiency of the evidence

Text: This court may quickly dispense with Bryant’s sufficiency-of-the-evidence claim. Having neither moved for judgment as a matter of law before he submitted the assault claim to -9- Case Nos. 15-5005, 5186 Bryant v. City of Memphis the jury, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 50(a), nor renewed the motion (or sought a new trial) after the entry of judgment, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 50(b); Fed. R. Civ. P. 59, Bryant failed to preserve the issue for review by this court. See Maxwell v. Dodd, 662 F.3d 418, 420–21 (6th Cir. 2011).
