Avenatti found guilty

Apparently though there was one juror who was refusing to deliberate for a long time and the judge had to issue an instruction that they all needed to actually deliberate multiple times. From what I'm reading that's a pretty thorny legal issue which will give Avenatti a not completely frivolous avenue to appeal and claim that the judge should have accepted that it was a hung jury and declared a mistrial:

Avenatti is basically a Trump wannabe who isn't as skilled at avoiding personal liability for his actions. I don't know what on earth made him think it was a good idea to go on cable news all the time in breach of his client's NDA before winning the case to cancel the NDA.

As far as the mistrial goes.... was the juror actually taken off the jury? If she ended up deliberating with the other jurors and voted guilty I don't know that there's that much to complain about.
