"Justice Trumps Bad Law"
Jury Nullification: with long version of text.
A jury may reach a verdict of "not guilty" even
if the defendant has broken the law, if the jury concludes that the law was unjust.
Ironically, if you inform the judge of your willingness to exercise this constitutional
right, you will not be allowed to sit on a jury. A valuable resource is www.FIJA.org
