Not only must the alleged error be specifically set out, but also the facts and grounds in support of the claimed error must be discussed with enough particularity that the trial court may be made aware of the exact legal issue involved. Failure to comply waives any claimed error except sufficiency of the evidence, pursuant to TR. 50(A)(5)."”

A party may move for such judgment on the evidence: ❖ ❖ * “(5) may raise the issue upon appeal for the first time in criminal appeals but not in civil cases; . . . .””
