So, a mistrial is the legal equivalent of "Have you tried turning it off and back on"?

[Sabrowsky]

whoever edits this is a genious for putting footage of a judge beating someone over the head with a gavel when Devin says "occasionally, something goes wrong"

[tonysladky]

As a Magic player, given the Mulligan analogy, I have to assume that in the follow-up trial, they only bring 11 jurors, and if that one goes to a mistrial, they only draw 10 jurors and so on and so forth down to a minimum of one juror.

[michaelmeli]

Objection! Most disputes don't make it to a court room, it's unlikely that I will see you in court.

[gchicklet]

I was once selected for jury duty. The jury was seated for less than ten minutes before we were forced to leave the room. After a few hours in the jury room (with free lunch!) The judge came in and told us it was declared a mistrial because of something the first, and only, witness had said. He was pissed.

Would absolutely love to see a Legal Eagle video on the lawsuit (really the whole situation) with Liberty University and Jerry Falwell Jr.

[taesaes]

You should also do a shorts on what a hung jury is, or generally now a jury would deliberate.

[RWAsur]

The zoom in when you say you'll see us in court is a new level of threat I was unprepared for-

[emeraldqueen]

Would you please do a full length video on miss trials and give some examples of actual miss trials and explain WHY they’re miss trials?

[Poppi_QT]

I saw judges declare them all the time in Law & Order: SVU when I was younger.

[jonathanstepakoff]

These little bites are rad, love the channel and all your work! Thanks for making these legal nuances more accessible to all!

[Redishere]

There are more shorts from this channel them from my 180 other subscribed channels. Good job.
Slightly overwhelming but respect.

[tesslacoell]

which brings up another subject I'd love to see you actually tackle - maybe more in depth: Jury Nullification.

[Gerthious]

I think a piece on when a majority is demanded vs a mistrial would be useful and interesting

[rustyshackleford]

I've been a subscriber for a while now and I'd like to tell you how much I appreciate your content. You do an excellent job breaking legalese down for the rest of us. Your clips are fun and informative, you're a natural. Please keep up the good work. Thank you.

-Saul Goodman

[DrFunkman]

Objection: The one exception is if it’s a mistrial due to severe misconduct by the prosecutor and the judges dismissed the case with prejudice, the charges are, for all intents and purposes, deemed dismissed and cannot be brought back by a second trial

[hunterlarrison]

Point of order! Nothing in particular I just want to thank you for bringing accessibility and layman explanation to understanding of the legal system. I just think it’s neat and you’re cool for doing it.

[pattygould]

Thank you. I didn't know this but I needed to.
