Overcoming Jury Bias
OVERCOMING JURY BIAS The purpose of this paper is to examine various approaches to coping with biases, beliefs and preloaded conceptions, particularly regarding the civil justice system, which citizens bring to the courthouse when called for jury duty. We overlay modern forensic psychological princi- ples which have emerged from numerous studies of the decision-making processes of jurors onto persuasive techniques which have been used successfully for centuries. Finally, we examine twelve suggested methods to cope with jury bias. We also examine methods of creating, struc- turing and testing messages and themes as well as techniques for effective delivery of themes as a means of assisting jurors in setting aside bias. However, we begin where all persuasion begins: with Aristotle. I. ARISTOTLE'S PRINCIPLES OF PERSUASION 2300 years ago, Aristotle, in his Discourse on Rhetoric reduced the principles of argu- ment to four major points. Examination of these four points reveals that they serve those of us who labor in the vineyards of litigation as well today as they have served Aristotelian scholars for 23 centuries. Aristotle's first principle: Well dispose your audience to you and ill dispose them to your enemy. It is not sufficient to make your own case but it is also necessary to affirmatively attack your opponent's position, particularly on their most salient points. We often win the battle on the case in chief and lose the war through ignoring the opponent's case. Ideally, co-counsel in your office should be assigned the task of preparing fully the other side's case from their perspective. -

The Covid–19 Pandemic and Haemoglobin Disorders
THE COVID–19 PANDEMIC AND HAEMOGLOBIN DISORDERS VACCINATIONS & THERAPEUTIC DRUGS An Informational Guide from the Thalassaemia International Federation (TIF) Prepared by: Dr Androulla Eleftheriou, Executive Director, TIF Last Updated: 12 May 2020 VACCINATIONS & THERAPEUTIC DRUGS Introduction It is important to note that there are currently no FDA1 or EMA2-approved or even recommended agents for the treatment of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), for which the World Health Organization (WHO) declared as pandemic on Wednesday 11th of March 2020. Any agent being used at this time is being administered in an experimental setting under controlled conditions. Thalassaemia International Federation (TIF) has made an effort to compile a list of studies/clinical trials for treatment and vaccines, which is by no means exhaustive as this situation is extremely labile and research in this area is dramatically intensified. New information is anticipated to be added to this guide which is prepared exclusively for TIF’s global thalassemia community. The viral genome was mapped very soon as rom early January 2020 and shared globally. In February 2020, the WHO published an overview of the potential therapeutic candidates for the treatment of COVID-19. The document outlines 76 regimens that have been proposed (as of February 17, 2020) for the treatment of patients infected with the virus. Thirty-eight of these candidates are in the preclinical state with minimal information available on their proposed mechanism, uses, doses routes, or planned trials. Sixteen of the remaining regimens contain an interferon-based product. The rest include a variety of antimicrobials, corticosteroids, convalescent plasma, and biologics. The Director-General of the WHO, Mr Tedros Adhanom, stated on the 10th of April 2020, that more than 70 countries have joined WHO’s trial to accelerate research on effective treatments and 20 Institutions and companies ‘are racing to develop a vaccine’. -

Jury Managers' Manual
JURY MANAGERS' MANUAL The Jury Managers' Manual is a complete guide to all elements of a trial court juror management system. The subject matter is organized chronologically to match the process by which jurors experience their service. It is the intent of the Office of the State Courts Administrator that the manual be a user-friendly reference source. Effective and efficient juror management will save juror compensation dollars and minimize the inconvenience of those who serve as trial jurors and their employers. Through the efforts of the jury management project, the Florida State Courts System and diligent jury staff, both in the trial court administrator offices and local deputy clerks offices, saved over $3,331,203 in juror compensation costs in fiscal year 1993-94. Achievement and maintenance of the goals of the jury management project cannot continue to be realized without the cooperation of all chief judges, all judges conducting jury trials, trial court administrative staff, and deputy clerks. The Office of the State Courts Administrator has established procedures for monitoring jury system performance in the local trial courts. In addition, the OSCA staff are available to provide technical assistance and training to the trial courts when requested. Any questions about this manual should be directed to Research, Planning & Court Services, Office of the State Courts Administrator, 500 South Duval Street, Supreme Court Building, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1900. The telephone number is (904) 922-5094, or SUNCOM 292-5094. This manual replaces the Jury System Management Manual issued January 1985.
