Jury Issue of Interest in Mississippi

 This case looks like a potential problem waiting to happen.  

City of Picayune v. Landry Lewis Germany Architects, P.A., 2022-CA-00909-SCT (Civil - Torts - MTCA)
Reversing a judgment against the City based on a claim that the City failed to volunteer information about a juror during voir dire in a civil trial to which the City was a party, holding: "A party litigant has no duty to party opposite to personally intervene during a trial to prevent a fraud on the court by a potential juror."
(9-0)
