Mark Targowski appeals the judgment entered by the district court1 following a jury trial in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action asserting Fourth Amendment claims. Having carefully reviewed the parties’ arguments on appeal, we find no basis for reversal. See Patterson v. City of Omaha, 779 F.3d 795, 801 (8th Cir. 2015) (explaining that, when assessing the findings of the jury, this Court views the evidence in the light most favorable to the jury verdict, assuming as true all facts that the prevailing party’s evidence tended to prove); Craig Outdoor Advert., Inc. v. Viacom Outdoor, Inc., 528 F.3d 1001, 1009 (8th Cir. 2008) (stating that a jury verdict is entitled to extreme deference and will not be set aside unless no reasonable jury could have reached the same verdict based on the evidence submitted). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. ______________________________ 1 The Honorable Billy Roy Wilson, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas. -2-
