Lawyers for Lindsay Clancy ask a judge to investigate allegations involving a juror, including checking the juror’s mobile phone use and examining what the juror answers on questionnaires. The request is aimed at determining whether juror conduct may have affected the deliberations.
The court is asked to probe a “holdout” juror, according to reports, and to review potential information that may not have been fully disclosed during the juror selection process. The legal submissions focus on whether the juror complied with instructions and whether any phone activity could be relevant to the fairness of the proceedings.
While outlets report the same overall request, they phrase the issue slightly differently, describing it as an investigation into the juror and highlighting the specific steps the defence seeks—such as scrutinizing phone use and questionnaire responses. The judge’s decision on whether to order any inquiry is not reported in the available summaries.
