Please read $"$E$-$commerce & Cyberlaw" of the text: Google in the Jury Room.

A current problem with jurors is their "Googling" to get information. For example, in a public corruption trial, a juror eventually admitted to the judge that she had googled the following:

$1.$ Whether the jury could have just six members

$2.$ What the penalty was for the crimes charged

$3.$ The definition of bribery

She then shared all of this information with her fellow jurors during their interactions and deliberations.

The court held that the definition of "bribery" was the central focus of the case and ordered a mistrial.

After reading this information, you should have a better understanding of the court structure, the steps in a trial, and how one may serve on a jury to answer the following discussion question.

Taylor needed green sponges for building the floral designs she sells to exclusvie home decorators. Taylor had a contract with the Lavender Haze Floral Supply, Inc. to deliver green sponges by Saturday; however, Lavender Haze Floral Supply, Inc. failed to deliver them as promised. Taylor needed to obtain the green sponges from another supplier, Ivy Corporation and was late on nine deliveries. Taylor then sued Lavender Haze Floral Supply, Inc. for its failure to deliver the green sponges. During voir dire questioning, Taylor's lawyer questioned a potential juror, Willow and learned that Willow is the cousin of the owner of Ivy Corporation. Subsequently, attorneys for both sides agreed on a jury and were ready to begin the rest of the court proceedings.

At trial, one of Taylor's customers, Grace, has been called by Taylor's lawyer as a witness and is now on the witness stand, testifying about Taylor's late perfomance and the penalty she charged. The lawyer for Lavender Haze Floral Supply, Inc. knows that Grace frequently waives penalties for good suppliers.
