New State-By-State Compilation of Social Media Jury Instructions

Last year I began a state-by-state compilation of jury instructions regarding jurors' use of the Internet and social media, which has been one of the most popular posts on this blog.

Now I have put together a complete compilation of such instructions from the every state, as well as the federal circuits, along with summaries of cases in which the courts have dealt with juror using the Internet and social media during trial.

The new compilation is published in the latest edition of the Reynolds Courts & Media Law Journal (available here), the journal I edit for the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Courts and Media.
