Download or read book Posttrial Adjustments to Jury Awards written by Michael G. Shanley and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 1987 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivated by the recent national debate on the growth of jury awards, this report examines how jury awards change after trial. It considers not just tort actions, but all civil suits for money damages. For all types of cases, it (1) compares jury awards to final payments, (2) examines how results vary by award size, and (3) studies whether results differ by case characteristics. The authors find that, in the locales studied, defendants paid out an average proportion of 0.71 of the amount the jury originally awarded. Further, reductions were generally greater among cases with the largest awards. However, some sizable awards were not lowered, and results differed significantly depending on the characteristics of the case. The findings suggest that the system works already in much the same way that the current proposals for legal change are intended to work, namely by affecting "excessive" awards.

Download or read book The Right to a Fair Trial written by Thom Brooks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The right to a fair trial is often held as a central constitutional protection. It nevertheless remains unclear what precisely should count as a 'fair' trial and who should decide verdicts. This already difficult issue has become even more important given a number of proposed reforms of the trial, especially for defendants charged with terrorism offences. This collection, The Right to a Fair Trial, is the first to publish in one place the most influential work in the field on the following topics: including the right to jury trial; lay participation in trials; jury nullification; trial reform; the civil jury trial; and the more recent issue of terrorism trials. The collection should help inform both scholars and students of both the importance and complexity of the right to a fair trial, as well as shed light on how the trial might be further improved.
