Abstract
This article provides a brief overview of a national study commencing in early 2014 which will use jurors from criminal trials to explore public opinions about sentencing. Judges sitting in trials for sex offences and serious violence offences in metropolitan and selected regional courts will be asked to invite jurors to participate in the national study following the return of a guilty verdict in the trial.
