ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before BRORBY, KELLY, and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.

	After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal.  See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G).  The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
	Plaintiffs appeal from two rulings of the district court following a jury’s award of damages to plaintiffs on their products liability claim:  the grant of judgment as a matter of law to defendants and the denial of plaintiffs’ subsequent motion for new trial.  Our jurisdiction over this appeal arises from 28 U.S.C. § 1291.  Our review of the district court’s order granting judgment as a matter of law is de novo.  Cadena v. Pacesetter Corp., 224 F.3d 1203, 1208 (10th Cir. 2000).  We review the denial of plaintiffs’ motion for new trial under a more deferential standard, abuse of discretion.  Webb v. ABF Freight Sys., Inc., 155 F.3d 1230, 1246 (10th Cir. 1998).
	The underlying facts and procedural history are familiar to the parties and we need not repeat them here.  After careful review of the record on appeal in light of the parties’ arguments, the applicable law, and the standards of review, we conclude that the district court properly granted judgment as a matter of law to defendants and that its denial of plaintiffs’ motion for new trial was not an abuse of its discretion.  Plaintiffs’ arguments to the contrary lack merit.  We decline to review those arguments not presented to the district court.  See Smith v. Rogers Galvanizing Co., 128 F.3d 1380, 1386 (10th Cir. 1997).
	Therefore, for substantially the same reasons as contained in the district court’s orders dated August 26, 1999, and October 29, 1999, the judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Kansas is AFFIRMED.
