A Mistrial terminates the Trial mid-proceedings due to the error. Mistrials can occur for many reasons, including: (1) Death of a Juror or Attorney; (2) Impropriety in selecting the Jury which is discovered during the Trial; (3) Fundamental prejudicial error which is seriously unfair to a party and cannot be cured by appropriate instructions to the Jury (such as highly improper remarks by counsel in Closing Argument); (4) Juror misconduct (such as having contacts with one of the parties, considering evidence not presented during Trial, conducting an independent investigation of the matter); or (5) The Jury's inability to reach a verdict because it is deadlocked (i.e. Hung Jury). Certain events during Trial will likely result in an Objection, Motion to Strike, Request for Curative Instruction, or even a Motion for Mistrial.  These include: (1) Referring to Defendant's liability insurance or insurer in testimony elicited by Plaintiff's Counsel, or in Plaintiff's Counsel's Closing Argument; (2) Referring to race or racial discrimination when the lawsuit does not involve a claim for discrimination; (3) Referring to excluded matter; (4) When an Attorney gives his or her own opinion on the issues in their Closing Argument; (5) When an Attorney makes a derogatory remark about the opposing party; (6) When an Attorney asks the Jury to “put themselves in the shoes of the Plaintiff” (this is known as the “Golden Rule” and traditionally has resulted in reversals); (7) When an Attorney presents an argument based on facts not contained in the record; (8) When an Attorney comments on the failure of a witness to testify if that same witness could have been called to the stand by the commenting Attorney; (9) When an Attorney vouches personally for a witness; and (10) When a Juror engages in misconduct, or inappropriate contact with the parties or their Attorneys. #shots #youtubeshorts
