Iowa R. Civ. P. 1.1003
Judgment notwithstanding verdict
On motion, any party may have judgment in that
party’s favor despite an adverse verdict, or the jury’s failure to return any verdict under any of the
following circumstances:
1.1003(1) If the pleadings of the adverse party fail to allege some material fact necessary to
constitute a complete claim or defense and the motion clearly specifies such failure.
1.1003(2) If the movant was entitled to a directed verdict at the close of all the evidence, and
moved therefor, and the jury did not return such verdict, the court may then either grant a new trial
or enter judgment as though it had directed a verdict for the movant.
