Abstract:

An apparatus and a method are provided for an online jury research system which enables a multiplicity of end-users to build surrogate jury surveys by way of a communications network, such as the Internet. The online jury research system comprises a survey builder which enables the end-users to upload information for which responses of surrogate jurors are desired and to assemble surrogate jury surveys. The uploaded information may include questions, videotaped opening or closing statements, depositions, exhibits, and graphics. A host site is accessible to the end-users by way of the communications network and provides access to a jury services package. In an embodiment, the survey services package comprises services operated by one or more third-party service providers. The online jury research system provides the surrogate jury survey to selected respondents and then compiles the results for review by the end-users.
