Attorney Serving Jury Duty Accused of Misconduct,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
According to Wall Street Journal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
A Bronx woman allegedly lied about her legal and criminal background in order to serve on a tashelter fraud trial involving the ex-head of defunct law firm Jenkens Gilchrist Chicago office and the former top executive at accounting firm BDO Seidman LLP,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lawyers for the defendants said in court papers unsealed Monday.
Although allegations of juror misconduct have unfortunately routine,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they usually don involve jurors who have graduated from law school. Apparently,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], questions about the untruthful juror were raised shortly after the verdict when she sent a letter to the prosecution praising their trial skills. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it does not appear as though the trial judge is 100% that the attorneys and trial consultants for the defendant completely in the dark about the juror dishonesty during the trial. Thus,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], judge requested that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
the defense lawyers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as well as their paralegals or jury consultants,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to submit an affidavit on whether they knew about the juror alleged misrepresentations before a verdict was rendered in the case and when they first learned of her alleged conduct
In the future,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], New York want to consider emulating Missouri which requires attorneys in certain instances to research jurors prior to trial if they want to later raise claims of juror misconduct.
