Nandemoari writes "Russell Wright and his interpretation company, Stoam Holdings, afresh lost a $12 million dollar lawsuit brought by investors. But lawyers for the firm have complained that juror Johnathan Powell's Twitter sign broke rules when discussing the civil case with the public. The arguments in this dispute center on two points.
