Question

multiple choice 1 point a jury decision in a civil case: must be unanimous. must be reached in the same day the case is heard. depends on whether or not the parties have agreed to have their case decided by less than a unanimous verdict. is achieved by informal deliberations.

Explanation:

In most civil cases, jury unanimity is not required by default; parties can agree in advance to a non-unanimous verdict. Unanimity is mandatory in criminal cases, but civil cases allow for this flexibility. The other options are incorrect: civil jury decisions do not need to be reached the same day, they are formal, and unanimity is not a requirement unless the parties agree otherwise.

Answer:

depends on whether or not the parties have agreed to have their case decided by less than a unanimous verdict.
