It's the plaintiff's job to present the evidence to the jury in such a way
that they can understand and analyze it in order to reach a fair judgement.
The defense has to do the same to make their point. The legal system in this
country does not guarantee rocket scientists in the jury box, just peers,
i.e. fellow citizens. I find it a bit absurd to suggest that defendant in
this instance chose to settle in six figures a week before pretrial because
he thought he'd get idiots for jurors. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to
understand how an ultralight aircraft works...


By the same token if the case was so strong and the jurors so smart and I was
so afraid why did they settle ? They should have stuck it out and got a whole
lot more money then they settled for.

It doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to under stand how a hot cup of coffee works
either. I think jaun is very naive as to the legal system in this country.
