Can a jury's verdict stand unless it was palpably and grossly inadequate?

the jury's verdict stand unless it was palpably and grossly inadequate, Caskey v. Vill. of Wayland, 375 F.2d 1004, 1007 (2d Cir. 1967), and finding that it was not, properly upheld the verdict. Despite Plaintiffs' argument that the back pay damages awarded by the jury are significantly less than they expected, the district court reasonably determined that the jury could have found that the compensation owed to Plaintiffs was markedly lower, and the compensation Plaintiffs received in other employment during the relevant period markedly higher, than the figures Plaintiffs provided at trial. Accordingly, we cannot find that the district court abused its discretion and we affirm the denial of a new trial as to damages.
