I've added a paragraph to the UK section for this; one might want to add one for the Bristol verdict Chorl (talk) 11:40, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

For a reader unfamiliar with the common law system, the term "jury nullification" may intuitively mean that either the jury or its verdict is nullified, which (as I understand it now) is not the case: the term apparently means that the jury nullifies the law for this case. It would be good if this was explained early in the intro. – gpvos (talk) 16:20, 17 October 2023 (UTC) – gpvos (talk) 16:20, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
