  • if the defense makes a request for a mistrial after jury-deliberations

    From S K@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 26 21:46:18 2021
    let us say that the judge waits for the jury verdict. i the verdict is for acquittal, he can and would ignore the DEFENSE request for mistrial.

    so the defense request seems to be "give us a mistrial IF the jury convicts'.
