The Civil Jury Project Inaugural Conference: The State and Future of Civil Jury Trials
Friday, September 11, 2015 | 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.
Lipton Hall, 108 West Third Street
The new Civil Jury Project at NYU School of Law examines how the civil jury trial became a vanishing feature of the American legal landscape and looks at the consequences for the legal system and society more broadly. The Project will engage in three primary areas of activity; it will (i) undertake an empirical assessment of the current role of the jury in our civil justice system, (ii) create educational programs and publicity outlets for studies and policy proposals on the jury trial, and (iii) re-evaluate ways in which juries are constituted and jury trials are conducted.
