A hung jury often means a re-trial, which is
commenced by a lengthy agonising, administrative
and burdensome appeals process.
But at the end of a long trial, we already have the
legal team assembled "on the field", as it were.
In addition, there may be lines of legal avenue or
evidence
that were not presented so as not to
confuse the jury with multiple "plays".
I propose a brief penalty shootout with just the judge
and lawyers, in camera.
A rapid-fire of legal arguments are set out. The
opposing team are allowed to briefly react to each
argument, but not move to strike.
If the judge feels a number of arguments have "hit
the mark", an appeal case can be commenced
without the months of paperwork through the
appeals court.
That is all.
