Venue:
INI Seminar Room 1
Abstract:
This
talk will look at some of the different ways in which statistical analyses can
figure in trials or on appeal and will discuss ways in which these differences
give rise to different challenges that courts and statistical experts will have
to meet. For example, when statistics
are used to challenge the make-up of juries the issues posed and the models
used will be different than those that are posed when statistics are used to
establish claims of discriminatory hiring, and the issues posed when courts draw
on statistics to help resolve either of these matters
will differ from issues that arise when statistics are used to convey the
probative value of DNA evidence.
