In South Carolina, the verdict is published by the Clerk of Court. In other words, when a jury has reached a verdict, the Clerk of Court, not a member of the jury, announces the verdict to the courtroom.

But in every jury trial – whether criminal or civil – there is no mistaking that the jury, and only the jury, is the finder of all facts.

Starting in August and running throughout the season, Chris Paschal will be writing a weekly column called The Verdict - presented by the Goings Law Firm. And much like a jury, Chris will try to base my findings and opinions on facts. But unlike a jury, he wants to hear from the gallery, both what he got right and what he got wrong.
