Juror misconduct is not the fault of the Judge.

IANAL, but yes; the guy is in trouble, and the trouble will be called one or
both of the above.

Depending on how much intent he is proved to have had, I would not be surprised
to see him doing some time.

If I was him, I would now be talking to the most expensive lawyer I could find.

Juror misconduct is not the fault of the Judge.
Authored by: Steve Martin on Wednesday, October 03 2012 @ 07:11 AM EDT

The Free Dictionary discusses perjury and the laws regarding it. Basically, perjury is codified in 18 USC § 1621 and 18 USC § 1623. Related offenses include "subornation of perjury" (inducing another witness to commit perjury) and "false swearing" (lying under oath but not during an official proceeding).
