Don't hold your breath. Not only is our jury selection process flawed, so are the judges who's main concern is clearing their dockets of backlogs. I've yet to hear a judge tell a plaintiff where to put his groundless case. All you hear is "how can we get this settled?" What they really mean is how much is someone willinig to pay. Attorneys on the contigency fee bandwagon won't be allowed to go home empty handed by the judges who are also kindred spirit attorneys. In addition, the more compensation that comes from the private sector, the less burden on the public sector.
