California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from The PEOPLE V. STUDESVILLE, No. 08WF1010, No. G041994 (Cal. App. 2010):
supra, 154 Cal.App.4th at p. 1411.) However, "we disagree... that every intrusion into the jury's deliberative process requires automatic reversal." (Id. at p. 1417.) The "question is whether the intrusion amounts to 'such a substantial abridgment of the right to a jury trial' that it constitutes 'a miscarriage of justice without regard to the evidence.'" (Ibid., quoting People v. Oliver (1987) 196 Cal.App.3d 423, 432.)
