State Court Jury Verdicts: Unanimity Not Always Required
In state courts, whether a jury needs to be unanimous depends on the state and the type of trial. For criminal trials, nearly every state requires the jury to produce a unanimous verdict.

For civil trials, almost one-third of states only require a majority for a verdict. Some states require a majority if the money at issue in the trial is below a certain amount, and a unanimous verdict all other times.

Federal Court Jury Verdicts: Must be Unanimous
There are two court systems in the United States: federal and state courts. Each covers different types of cases. In the federal system, whether the trial is criminal or civil, the jury must reach a unanimous verdict.

The key point is that Mr. Iehab has lost 7 -0 (Playboy Enterprises) and 12 -0 (United Medical Devices). He has been "shut-out". He has not won one single count in either case. Not one.

Bankruptcy next.
