JMOL

Read a random definition: unerring

A quick definition of JMOL:

Term: JMOL

Definition: JMOL stands for "Judgment as a matter of law." This means that a judge can make a decision in a case before it goes to a jury if there is not enough evidence to support one side's argument. It's like the judge saying, "I don't think there's enough proof to let the jury decide, so I'm going to make a decision now."

A more thorough explanation:

JMOL

JMOL stands for Judgment as a matter of law. It is a legal term used in court when a judge decides that there is not enough evidence to support a claim made by one party in a case. The judge can then make a decision in favor of the other party without the case going to a jury.

For example, in a personal injury case, the plaintiff may claim that the defendant was responsible for their injuries. However, if the defendant can prove that they were not at fault, the judge may grant a JMOL in favor of the defendant, and the case would not go to a jury.

In another example, a plaintiff may claim that they were wrongfully terminated from their job. However, if the defendant can prove that the termination was lawful, the judge may grant a JMOL in favor of the defendant, and the case would not go to a jury.

JMOL is a legal term used in court when a judge decides that there is not enough evidence to support a claim made by one party in a case. The judge can then make a decision in favor of the other party without the case going to a jury. The examples illustrate how a JMOL can be granted in different types of cases when one party is able to prove that the other party's claim is not supported by enough evidence.
