JURIES IN BUSINESS LAWSUITS

The widespread use of the jury system in civil cases remains a distinguishing feature of the U.S, legal system. Some revere the jury as a supremely democratic institution that enables the general public to bring the community's sense of basic fairness into the resolution of even the most complex disputes. Others view juries in civil cases as easily confused and manipulated, especially in big commercial disputes. Either way, juries toss billions of dollars around and merit close study.
