Having ruled favorably to Camalier on its motion for a directed verdict, the trial judge instructed the jury that “the issue of liability has been decided by the Court as a matter of law in favor of [Camalier],” and that this meant “that [Madison’s] conduct breached [Camalier’s] rights . . . since [Madison] failed to give an adequate five-day termination notice.” “[Therefore,” the judge continued, “[Madison’s] conduct constitutes a trespass, a wrongful eviction, and breach of contract.” The judge then informed the jury that “[accordingly . . . there is no need for you to consider the other questions which have been raised concerning liability, such as whether the substituted space . . was similar in size to the original space; [or] whether [Madison] ever gave an adequate or proper 60-day notice of relocation.”
