Va. R. Sup. Ct. 1:11
As amended through September 26, 2024
If the court sustains a motion to strike the evidence of either party in a civil case being tried before a jury, or the evidence of the Commonwealth in a criminal case being so tried, then the court should enter summary judgment or partial summary judgment in conformity with its ruling on the motion to strike.
If the court overrules a motion to strike the evidence and there is a hung jury, the moving party may renew the motion immediately after the discharge of the jury, and, if the court is of opinion that it erred in denying the motion, it should enter summary judgment or partial summary judgment in conformity with its ruling on the motion to strike.
