would marcus have max pre warned about jane's alibi lie
I don't know. He probably should have, but he knows very well Jane's lying so he might have thought better of giving Max the opportunity of denying permission to call her to the stand.
However, it's not exactly going to make a good impression if the jury notices Max looking astonished at hearing Jane's alibi.

The hope is for an unanimous verdict.
If not possible then judge can accept a
majority verdict where at least 10 are agreed.
If not there is no verdict -the foreman
could nobble a couple of jurors - making only
9 agreed.
He couldnt overrule as all jurors go back into
court - whilst out they can send questions to
judge.
If less than 10 agree and that doesnt change
- there is no verdict and another trial would be
needed.
Above is for England & Wales.Other countries vary!
theres quite a bit more procedure than Ive given!
