Juror Misstatements of Law.. since hogan seems to have
represented himself as a
expert..?
kind of like "Negligence judgment reversed and remanded for
a new trial because juror erroneously stated the
law of negligence in that he
said defendant could not be
negligent if he had not been ticketed for
his
actions."
Parallels seem to exist in the other cases, too.
this is criminal cases, but would these still apply?

hogan kept talking i his interviews about his own patent and
he vigorously
understood everything...
what about this - "(B) an outside influence
was improperly
brought to bear on any juror; or"

"On the other hand,
simply putting verdicts beyond effective
reach can only promote irregularity
and injustice. The rule
offers an accommodation between these competing
considerations."[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

IANAL
Short answer - YES!
This is almost a classical case of a jury making a decision based on nothing
more than whim, not facts.
Of great importance is the fact that the jury foreman had bluntly stated that
their decision was made pure whim on numerous public forms a number of different
times.
In situation such as this a jury's findings can be nullified.
Will it be nullified? PJ or others more knowledgeable can answer that question
better than I but I believe it will be.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
