SAN DIEGO CRIMINAL DEFENSE: COURT OF APPEAL REVERSES CASE FOR JUROR MISCONDUCT
CALIFORNIA COURT OF APPEAL REVERSES CASE WHERE JUROR'S MISCONDUCT WAS PERVASIVE
The California Court of Appeal Fourth District, Division Four, has just reversed a case where a juror committed "pervasive" misconduct. In this case, the San Diego trial juror repeatedly violated his oath to remain impartial and to refrain from speaking to anyone juring the court of the trial. Because the juror consistently and pervasively spoke about the testimony in trial to a non-juror friend - including commenting on the defendant's failure to tetify - the Court of Appeal reversed the trial court's d enial of his Motion for New Trial.
