Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Law - Criminal process, Criminology, Law Enforcement, City University London (The City law School), course: LLM Criminal Litigation, language: English, abstract: There are well-founded arguments in favour of a jury trial and the idea that the jury is to preserve democracy would more than likely remain favourable with many. However a jury trial is not without its flaws and it is now apparent that a clear argument can be made to the contrary, that a jury is somewhat questionable. Given the difficulties, the number of concerns and uncertainties that now seem inherent within the jury, there are emerging doubts. This combined with the very benefits that would be derived from abandoning the jury is too important to be ignored.
