      • Ask a lawyer, I don't know that it's illegal for a juror/plaintiff to date if they happen to run into each other. I'm sure that it has happened and there has to be some precedent.

          That sounds kind of Chinese.

          • Well the case is over. I was the foreman so she'd probably have some recollection of me at this point.

              What were the issue and outcome, out of curiosity?

              • Motor vehicle accident. Plaintiff charged defendant's negligence led to sustained injuries to head, neck, and upper back. We determined the defendant's negligence was a factual cause in the harm to the plaintiff, there was no contributory negligence on the part of the plaintiff, but we determined a relative pittance in damages.

                As an aside, both the plaintiff and the defendant were terrible under examination, all the more surprising considering the defendant was an attorney herself.

                • The judge was nice enough, after the judgment, to retain the attorneys for a discussion with the jury in which we could ask questions (she ended requesting votes for retention, though ). Just as when I was a witness in that preliminary hearing two weeks ago for that criminal incident, I was again asked, this time by the judge, if I was an attorney myself.

                  Go figure.

                  Judging from my observations of the public defendant in the other case and these attorneys in this case, I would think I would make an above average lawyer. But I guess it's easy for me to say that when I'm not the one making a case.

                      In my opinion, she was not injured. I was one of the hold-outs during deliberation with regards to whether or not the defendant's negligence was a cause of the harm, namely because we doubted any harm took place. As the foreman, however, I negotiated to agree the defendant's negligence was the cause of the harm, but that we who doubted the veracity of the claims of harm incurred, would request remuneration of 0 dollars, averaged into the determinations of recompense decided by the other jurors.

                          She reminds me of my ex (the prostitute) in a multitude of ways, including ethnic background, appearance, demeanor, age, neighborhood of origin, economic background, legally-stated profession (assisting mentally challenged persons), college studies (nursing), modelling aspirations, appearance as a dancer in local rap videos, and proclivity to be involved in vehicular accidents and lawsuits, combined with a remission of morality in the face of potential profit.

                          Wait. Maybe this is a bad idea But I can't hold some superficial similarities against someone who is their own person! That's stupid!


                          Actually, I would be surprised if they don't know each other Or the other chick from a few months ago.

                              You are right, you have to date this person so as not to be a bigot. Just add her on facebook.

                              ps. I was the one who argued you should have gotten nothing for a settlement because you were lying about being injured. Have a nice day!"
