- if an explanation is too brief or vague, the jury doesn't understand
-Dr. Ogloff says that an est. 40% of jury members zone out during judge's instructions
- Jury has an estimated 90 second attention span when listening to judge
-Chief Judge of The County Court, Michael Rozenes, suggests that judges should simplify jury directions e.g. More clarity in the minefield of DNA evidence
- Unlike most jury directions around the world (15 minutes - 30 minutes) jury directions in the state of Victoria can take 1-2 days.
- "Judges need to be educated to understand the problems confronting jurors. Because the courtroom is such a familiar place to them, they may not appreciate the confusion and fear which often face jurors. Don't assume the common man understands courtroom procedures and legal language."]]> 2017-09-06 06:30:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jflorance/qut3wglvbw00/wish/185013166 Disadvantage 17thtig https://padlet.com/jflorance/qut3wglvbw00/wish/185013178 You can never have a fair trial because of social media.
