How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- Rejecting a similar claim on appeal because the plaintiff, “who was represented by counsel in the district court, did not object at trial to the composition of the jury pool, so her appellate claim—whether Constitutional or statutory—is not properly before us.”
- “But the right to a jury trial in civil cases is based in the Seventh Amendment, not the Sixth, and the Supreme Court has not recognized a Constitutional mandate that jury pools in civil cases reflect a fair cross-section of the community.”
