What is the judgment/verdict stage of civil procedure?

The judgment/verdict stage of civil procedure is the final stage of a civil trial in Idaho. At this point, the judge or jury has heard all the evidence and arguments from both sides, and has then come to a decision about the outcome of the case. The judgment/verdict stage requires the judge or jury to make a decision and officially enter it into the court record. The judge or jury must consider all the evidence and arguments that they heard before making a decision. Depending on the case, the judgment/verdict could be in favor of one of the parties involved, or could be a compromise between both parties. If the jury is involved, they will reach a unanimous verdict, otherwise the judge will make a ruling based upon the evidence presented. The party that wins the trial is entitled to a judgment from the court that officially states the outcome of the case. This judgment can include financial damages to be paid by the losing party, or orders that the losing party must follow. Once the judgment has been entered into the court record, both parties have a certain amount of time to appeal the decision if they disagree with it. If no appeal is filed, then the judgment/verdict from the civil trial is considered final and binding.
