TIMOTHY R. RICE
U.S. MAGISTRATE JUDGE

AND NOW, on February 2, 2015, upon consideration of Plaintiff Mary
Boardman's Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law (doc. 124) and Defendant Brown's Super
Stores' Response (doc. 125), it is hereby ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiffs Motion is GRANTED. As explained in my accompanying Memorandum
Opinion, the jury lacked sufficient evidence to find that Brown's did not falsely
imprison Boardman in violation of Pennsylvania law.
2. The Clerk of Courts is directed to enter judgment in favor of Plaintiff and against
Brown's.

U.S. MAGISTRATE JUDGE
