It isn't illegal anywhere in the USA, but since it gives
power to the jury and the political bosses, want their "fair
trials" to have the desired result, any juror who knows of
or speaks about the term, let alone knows about jury
nullification will be excluded. If a lawyer brings it
during the trial the judge will probably declare a mistrial
and the attorney in contempt. I've even heard of people
handing out literature near the court house being arrested
for jury tampering [which it is not.].
New Jersey state laws violate many traditional American
values, that's why it is known as the "people's Republic of
New Jersey."
