NORA contends that the district court erred in permitting the jury to award Martinez compensatory damages for breach of an implied contract and emotional distress, and in entering judgment upon the jury award for punitive damages.
NORA opposed Martinez's motions and moved for judgment as a matter of law, or in the alternative for a new trial, arguing that the punitive damages verdict was a legal nullity.
NORA argues that, if any of Martinez's liability claims survive this appeal, NORA is entitled to a new trial due to the admission of prejudicial evidence related to any claims that we are now determining should not have been submitted to the jury.

The new, balanced range of colors, in particular, manifests the attractive diversity of nora®; rubber floorings, and thus evidences how nora®; floorcoverings are an essential part of upmarket interior design.
The new nora®; collection has been created in conjunction with Daniel Weil from the prestigious British design agency Pentagram, which has been lauded as the "Secular Order of Top Design" by a prestigious German daily newspaper.
They are supplemented by a multiplicity of discreet, modern colors, which once again convincingly confirm nora®; rubber floorcoverings in their role as the acknowledged all-rounder of floor design.
