Some
\ncourts are lenient with the amount of time allotted for a trial, some are not.
\nIt certainly can seem impossible, sometimes, to jam the amount of evidence and
\ntestimony you have in the number of hours permitted.<\/span><\/p>\nAnd yet,
\nas is so often true of many things in life \u201cLess is more.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nOn being
\ndebriefed, some jurors stated that the matter at hand was treated with less
\nthan full consideration as the trial stretched on and on. Jurors began
\ndiscussing plans for the various events in their lives, sharing thoughts about
\nhow to deal with children, difficult bosses, and so on, clearly impatient and
\nbored with what they were experiencing as an unnecessarily long process.<\/span><\/p>\nJurors
\nwho may have had the patience to sit through long trials and long deliberations
\nsome 10 or so years ago are no longer willing to be held hostage past what they
\nconsider a sufficient rendering of the facts and testimony. Our world has sped
\nup tremendously: we abbreviate everything, we rely on bullets and headlines, and
\nwe expect everything to happen quickly, as in \u201cnow.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nThis is
\none of the great advantages of focus groups: attorneys are forced to reduce
\ntheir entire case to a mere hour and a half, which puts a glaring spotlight on
\nwhat is essential and what could be left aside.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\nYes, you
\nstill must get across your points, you must still develop testimony and present
\nevidence appropriately. However, a great deal can often be trimmed from the
\npresentation of your case without losing impact. If anything, you generally
\ngain impact from being succinct.<\/span><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Some courts are lenient with the amount of time allotted for a trial, some are not.
