The judges voted yesterday to have a pilot civil jury trial in May. I'm told it was a spirited debate and it passed 10-8. If that goes well, other civil and criminal trials could resume as soon as the summer.
For the pilot trial in May, there are a number of protocols and standards that will have to be met before it can go forward. It will be interesting to see where we will be with the variants and vaccine roll-out at that time.
I posted about the issue a few weeks ago here.
Surely this is some bond debenture default the adjudication of which is of monumental importance.
ReplyDeleteWhen I report on the secret votes by state court judges I get taken to the woodshed by the now chief judge. How do you get a pass?
