FIJA Fully Informed Jury Association https://fija.org/ FIJA empowers jurors to uphold individual rights and liberty by instilling in them a rich understanding of their protective role, including jurors’ right to refuse to enforce unjust law. For nearly 30 years, Jury Rights Day has been FIJA's signature day of education. Each year FIJA hosts Jury Rights Day on September 5 in commemoration of the famous trial of William Penn in 1670 which laid the foundation for the right that jurors have still today to conscientiously acquit someone by jury nullification. Friends of FIJA nationwide are called to spend an hour or more on or near Jury Rights Day creating more fully informed jurors in their communities.
