On Thursday, the network announced "You the Jury," a new prime-time, unscripted reality show that allows the audience to render a verdict in a civil case. The series will feature prosecution and defense lawyers arguing ripped-from-the-headlines civil cases, followed by closing arguments from the plaintiff and defendant while sitting across from each other. Former TV judge and current Fox News host Jeanine Pirro will host, and retired Superior Court of California judge LaDoris Cordell will preside as the show's judge. Also serving as counsel on the series are California-based lawyers Areva Martin and Mike Cavalluzzi, as well as Charla Aldous and Joe Tacopina. "You the Jury" will premiere on Fox on April 7.
