An article by Mara E. Zazzali-Hogan posted on the ediscoverylawalert.com website.
This article discusses Juror's use of computer technology, including social media networks, and what courts are trying to do to control this type of behavior.
The article states, "All over the country, courts are struggling with how best to prevent juror communications and/or research on the Internet, including on social media such as Facebook. What's the solution? Thus far, there is no clear answer, as evidenced by a recent New Jersey case in which a juror dodged sanctions for contempt after researching a child sex-crime case involving a former pastor on the Internet -- even after being instructed to refrain from such Internet research. " A link about the specific referenced case is provided in the article."
