32. Juries render verdicts. After they have done so, they are discharged.

Sat Nov 29, 2025, 02:19 PM

Saturday

Judges then enter judgment— usually on the verdict rendered by the jury — but sometimes a judgment of acquittal if the judge doesn’t feel there was sufficient evidence to support a guilty verdict.

Juries do not “dismiss” verdicts. I can’t conceive of why they would do so having just rendered the verdict, even if they had the power, and were still around to do it.
