CONDITIONAL RULING ON GRANT OF MOTION Clause Samples

CONDITIONAL RULING ON GRANT OF MOTION. If a motion for judgment of acquittal after verdict of guilty under this Rule is ▇▇▇▇▇- ▇▇, the court shall also determine whether any motion for a new trial should be granted if the judgment of acquittal is thereafter vacated or reversed, specifying the grounds for such deter- mination. If the motion for a new trial is ▇▇▇▇▇- ▇▇ conditionally, the order thereon does not af- fect the finality of the judgment. If the motion for a new trial has been granted conditionally and the judgment is reversed on appeal, the new trial shall proceed unless the appellate court has otherwise ordered. If such motion has been ▇▇- ▇▇▇▇ conditionally, the appellee on appeal may assert error in that denial, and if the judgment is reversed on appeal, subsequent proceedings shall be in accordance with the order of the ap- pellate court. (As amended Feb. 28, 1966, eff. July 1, 1966; Nov. 10, 1986, Pub. L. 99–646, § 54(a), 100 Stat. 3607; Apr. 29, 1994, eff. Dec. 1, 1994.) Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules—1944 (a). 1. The purpose of changing the name of a motion for a directed verdict to a motion for judgment of acquittal is to make the nomenclature ac- cord with the realities. The change of nomenclature, however, does not modify the nature of the motion or enlarge the scope of matters that may be considered.
