The judgment given by the jury?
It is called the verdict. In a criminal case it will be Guilty or Not Guilty. In a civil case it will be Liable or Not Liable.
Are appeals easy to overturn in a civil case verdict by jury?
Appeals in civil cases are generally not easy to overturn; appellate courts typically defer to the jury's findings unless there is a clear legal error or substantial evidence issue. The appellate process focuses on whether the trial was conducted fairly and according to the law, rather than re-evaluating the evidence. As a result, a successful appeal usually requires showing that the trial court made a significant mistake that affected the outcome.
How often does a judge overturn a civil verdict?

When is a jury's desicion not final?
I am going to assume this has to deal with criminal law as it is in the "Crime and Criminal Law", so this information does not apply to civil (Though it is similar). The good news is that if a jury returns a verdict of not guilty, that is it - the defendant is not guilty on those charges. It can never be overturned (Assuming there is not some type of jury problem and there is a retrial). Basically, an appeals court can never overturn a not guilty verdict when it is returned by a jury. This is based on the doctrine of claim preclusion. If someone could be tried twice on the same charges, this would be a deprivation of the 14th amendment due process right afforded to the defendant by the state. There are some instances to take note of, however. One being when the jury returns a guilty verdict, and the judge grants a motion notwithstanding the verdict (Essentially overturning the jury's verdict and finding the defendant not guilty). This CAN be appealed and overturned. This is not subject to claim preclusion. Good luck.
How are civil cases decided by a jury?
In civil cases, a jury decides the outcome based on the evidence presented in court. Jurors listen to arguments from both sides, evaluate the facts, and reach a verdict on whether the defendant is liable or not. The decision is typically made by a majority vote of the jury members.
