How a trial runs
You state the case
One idea: a business, a purchase, a plan or a decision, and anything the court should know.
Opening arguments
Vector argues it will fail. Mint argues it will work. Neither sees the other first.
Cross-examination
Each side takes apart the other's three weakest claims.
Twelve blind votes
Every juror reads the whole record and votes alone, with a reason and a fix.
The ruling
The judge weighs the ballots and the arguments, then sets out what to do next.
Twelve points of view, each asking one question. No juror sees another’s vote.
