Jury still out in Guardian v. Weekly suit
By Andy Van De Voorde
After deliberating for five hours Friday, the jury in the Bay Guardian's predatory pricing lawsuit against the Weekly knocked off without a verdict. The panel will take the weekend off and will take up the case against Monday morning at 8:30 at the courthouse on McAllister Street.
Under the law, the Guardian needs nine votes from the twelve-member panel to win a verdict. The Weekly needs nine to receive a verdict in favor of the defense. Anything in between represents a hung jury, meaning the Guardian would not win, but could in theory ask the judge to allow it to refile the case.
