Respondents. FILED: December 28, 2015

Dwyer, J. — Trials matter. The results of trials matter. The manner in

which a trial takes place, the evidence admitted, and the judicial rulings made all

matter. In this case, the plaintiff, Steven Lodis, being already unhappy with the

results of two separate jury trials arising from causes of action asserted in the

complaint herein, finds himself similarly disaffected by the result of the third jury

trial in this matter. In an effort to obtain yet a fourth jury trial in this cause, Lodis

seeks to recharacterize and redefine numerous discretionary rulings made by the

trial judge. As should be the case with all endeavors of this type, Lodis's entreaty

"now meets the implacable gaze of the appellate court."1 We affirm.
