The time that all the jurors to Twitter Come

The time has come for all parties involved know what you think jurors at any given time.

Think about it, at the Olympic Games, we demand immediate information from the judges find the scores of the participants. The same holds true for all elections. In baseball, if the call is questionable, we go to the video. The same thing in football. All sports take over now, and help current state of the art for the spectators and fans.

In our antiquated judiciary, lawyers, medical controlAbuse and accident cases in New York must submit evidence to support your claim without speaking ever been able to jurors during the trial. Jurors are forbidden from communicating with each other about the case and with lawyers or litigants. The only time a party clearly knows what the jury thought whey makes the jury verdict. Throughout history, sought attorneys have jurors read expressions and body language to them aIdea of what they think, as the testimony is presented.

With the recent controversy over the judges in the selection of jurors who are singing, and during the study, the time is now ripe to allow all jurors as Twitter, that the parties may, the lawyers and the judge can see in real time, what do the judges.

Think about how this new idea would be a trial lawyer. You would see it exactly the lawyer, what the jury pool is thinking about questionsasked the lawyer. A lawyer can answer his questions and tailor the presentation of evidence, the jurors were twittering questions. The fact that jurors the opportunity to have their message immediately thought would be a complete protocol for judicial review is available, and for all parties in the court proceedings.

Rather than look at the jury, which is its expression, if a malicious piece of evidence has been provided, but could simply jurors twitter their immediateThoughts and a lawyer could continue to present testimony or change tactics on the fly.

I know that many lawyers try to resist this new approach to cases, and some may even cite case law to support the view that most lawyers do not have any interaction with the jurors must. But with instant messaging has twittered today, social networking and our world changed.

We no longer need to accept mail as the only means of communication. Instead, we havedeveloped overnight FedEx delivery. We use fax machines to documents in the world to send. Mobile phones and Internet telephony enables us to instantly communicate with anyone in the world. Our Blackberries and iPhones allow jurors, lawyers and people from all walks of life, to instantly online to do research and Google everything and everyone.

We are in the information age. There is no doubt that changing our legal procedures that must be.

An informal survey of our civilTrial courtrooms in New York County Supreme Court at 60 Center Street shows that very few of courtrooms for the 21 Century has been retrofitted. Internet access is spotty, digital document presenters are very lacking, and a DVD player and instant transcription of stenographic services in real time, too lacking in most courtrooms. There are innovative trial judge in New York who are currently using technologically advanced equipment in theirCourtrooms. This makes it easier to present cases and allows jurors to the testimony and evidence to visualize.

The time has come that the jury Twitter. Not only during the jury selection, but more important during the trial. Enter a keyboard to each juror and to allow each lawyer and the judge to see, come every tweet. Thus more studies will be concentrated and the litigants is a true insight into what has the jury been thinking about how proceeds will be the case.

While it is truetold the jury not to their opinion before you complete the final jury instructions, and only after consultation with the other jurors, the bottom line is Twittering jurors and information will provide valuable insight into the validity, or lack thereof, of a particular claim .

The time for change is now. Let us not squander.
