Here we only have six people on a jury. A jury is never sequestered in Canada, the country is, and there are very strict laws about contacting a jury member. We have a British legal system with fancy affected titles like Q.C. and all our judges are appointed by politicos and all are politicos are lawyers. Some lawyers even carry little bears with them. bdplaw.com A secretary in Ontario was fired by her lawyer boss and then sued for wrongful dismissal. Apparently they had an affair at the court house in the change room where all the trial lawyers hang their robes. What seemed to upset her lawyer and the judge most was that anyone would have sex "in full view of the robes". The judge found for her, the lawyer was admonished from the bench for fornicating in front of the robes. The robes have little stars and stripes on them based on seniority and they wear big southern looking Colonel Saunders ties. I suppose some are dazzled, I can't help but think it is a little too much.
