Last month, the Supreme Court agreed that the Essex County, New Jersey trial jury participating in a medical malpractice case involving an infant's brain damage was influenced by discriminatory sources during the choosing of the jury, thus being opposed to the medical professionals involved, as well as to Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, according to the Associated Press.

The Court ruled that this case requires another trial, since there is no way of knowing who the biased jurors were during this case thus the case requires another hearing before a final verdict can be reached. This was the largest New Jersey medical malpractice case in the history of the state.
