California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Peters, A131097, A132226 (Cal. App. 2013):
The court did not abuse its discretion when it concluded that appellants had failed to make a prima facie showing of good cause sufficient to support a reasonable belief that any juror committed misconduct. (People v. Jones (1998) 17 Cal.4th 279, 317.) The petition for disclosure was properly denied.
