Billy Joe Brooks ("Brooks") is a prisoner of the state of Illinois. Brooks sued prison warden Michael O'Leary ("O'Leary"), among others, under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Eighth Amendment. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of Brooks. O'Leary moved for judgment as a matter of law and the district court granted the motion. We affirm.
