Deliberations to resume Tuesday in Michael Jackson's civil suit Michael Jackson, shown in this 4/27/05 photo, was acquitted of all counts at the Santa Barbara County courthouse in Santa Maria, California, June 13, 200. 30 (UPI) -- The Los Angeles jury considering Michael Jackson's wrongful-death trial will resume deliberations Tuesday, officials said. The panel began deliberations in the Jackson family's lawsuit against AEG Live Thursday and continued through Friday without reaching a verdict. Nine of the 12 jurors must agree on a verdict in a civil trial. A unanimous agreement is needed from panels deciding criminal trials. Murray is serving a four-year prison sentence for involuntary manslaughter for administering what prosecutors called lethal amounts of sedatives and anesthesia to Jackson in an effort to help him sleep.
