Description
Jordan Blair sued the Appellees, alleging that they violated various federal and state laws while Blair was a student at boarding schools in Missouri and Florida. Prior to trial, the District Court granted the Appellees motion to dismiss Blairs claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) and the Appellees motion for summary judgment on Blairs state-law claim of false imprisonment. The District Court also granted summary judgment on Blairs state-law battery claim with respect to all Appellees except for Bo Gerhardt. During trial, the District Court granted the Appellees motion for judgment as a matter of law on Blairs claim under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. §Â§ 201--219 (2000). Blairs battery claim against Bo Gerhardt was submitted to the jury, which returned a verdict against Gerhardt and awarded Blair $20,000 in damages. The District Court denied Gerhardts motion for a new trial. Blair appeals the District Courts adverse rulings as to his claims, and we affirm. Bo Gerhardt cross-appeals the District Courts denial of his motion for a new trial. We reverse the District Courts judgment with respect to Gerhardts motion and remand for a new trial.
