Innovating For Wise Juries: Preliminary Instructions

By Stephen Susman, Richard Lorren Jolly and Dr. Roy Futterman ( June 14, 2017, 10:34 AM EDT) -- This is the third in our series of articles on the Civil Jury Project's proposed innovations that can resuscitate the American jury trial. Each week we offer a summary of a different innovation, the legal support for its use, and empirical studies on its popularity. Each innovation has been proposed by academics and practitioners, implemented by state and federal judges, and is not prohibited in most jurisdictions. Most importantly, each innovation addresses the main criticisms leveled at juries — that they are too long, too expensive, too unpredictable — and are designed to make trial by civil jury a more desirable form of dispute resolution. . . .
