a) During a lawsuit, on many occasions there is settlement prior to the trial and the case is ended, as we see in
A Civil Action. ... Finally, Jan filed
the complaint, and stated that the causes of action were negligence, conscious pain and suffering, and wrongful
deaths. ...
c) A civil trial heard by a jury is rarely held in Australia for numerous reasons. However, in America it is common to
find a civil trial heard by a panel of jurors. ...
This system is rarely used in Australia, as is juries in civil trials. ... However, NSW is introducing bill to remove juries from almost all civil trials. I believe
the current legal system in Australia should remain as it is, and keep civil jury trials to a minimum. Unless a court
orders otherwise, civil proceedings should be tried without a jury and not even parties to civil litigation should have
a right to a jury. ... Therefore, there is obvious room for error in a civil trial by jury, whereas a trial by judge ensures a fair and just trial.
