Appellants argue that appellees’ evidence was insufficient
to support municipal liability, and that the district court
therefore erred in denying appellants’ post-trial motion for
judgment as a matter of law on appellees’ Monell claim. We
review de novo the district court’s denial of judgment as a
matter of law. We will uphold the jury’s verdict “if it is
supported by substantial evidence, which is evidence
adequate to support the jury’s conclusion, even if it is also
possible to draw a contrary conclusion.” Harper v. City of
Los Angeles, 533 F.3d 1010, 1021 (9th Cir. 2008) (quoting
Pavao v. Pagay, 307 F.3d 915, 918 (9th Cir. 2002)).
