Assignment task: Going to court is the best thing about Jane's job. The excitement and unpredictability of trials-the tension that everyone involved feels just as the judge enters the courtroom, the fight over whose evidence is more credible and reliable-it is everything Jane hoped being a paralegal would involve. Her boss Grace is quite the litigator who gets nauseous at the thought of having to attend a mediation and risk losing a chance to make an opponent cry on the witness stand. Presently, the two of them are involved in a knock-down-drag-out fight, representing a plaintiff against a pharmaceutical company, alleging that the company's weight loss drug causes high blood pressure and strokes. The defense contends there is no scientific evidence to support the allegation. Furthermore, it argues that high blood pressure and strokes are part of what comes with being obese in the first place. The trial was winding down on Good Friday, and the judge ended court early so everyone could get a head start on the Easter holiday. At the nicest Easter brunch in town, Jane was standing in line for the prime rib slicing when she was tapped on the shoulder. Turning around, Jane saw juror no. 5, who said, "I thought I recognized you when you came in." He then started to make small talk, to which Jane smiled and nodded back. Talk then turned to the trial when juror no. 5 said, "How long do you think this case is going to last? My boss is really itching for me to come back to work. Oh-by the way-your boss is a great lawyer. She really gave it to that defense expert the last week." Jane agreed, mumbling something about Grace being the best, and then said goodbye after telling juror no. 5 that the case should probably be done by Tuesday. Has Jane violated the rule against ex parte communication? What should she do?
