With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". a collision with the Seventh Amendment.” Atlantic & Gulf Stevedores, Inc. v. Ellerman Lines, Ltd., 369 U.S. 355, 364, 82 S.Ct. 780, 7 L.Ed.2d 798 (1962).

Auwood, 850 F.2d at 891-92 (“If in fact there had been an interrogatory asking whether plaintiffs had proven any damages and the jury answered ‘no,’ that answer would have been inconsistent with the answers specifying dollar amounts of damage [labeled as NOMINAL].... Had such an irreconcilable inconsistency existed, the court should have granted a new trial as to damages.”); Magnett v. Pelletier, 488 F.2d 33, 35 (1st Cir.1973) (per curiam) (<HOLDING>).

B: holding that award of 500 in nominal damages in section 1983 action cannot be properly regarded as nominal damages but since it is conceivable that the court misspoke itself fairness dictates a remand for further findings or articulation  
C: holding that plaintiff waived the right to nominal damages in an excessive force case because nominal damages were not requested until after the verdict
D: holding that nominal damages award was appropriate where the evidence supporting the damages was speculative
