What if they can't decide?

We're now into some exciting stuff...

The jury has passed a note back to the judge. It reads, "We are ready for a verdict, but can't decide on one of the counts."

What this means is that the jury has finally after three days of deliberation made a decision on four out the five counts against John Ford. They just have one to go, but we have no idea which "count" this is -- and neither does the judge or the attorneys.

The answer we all want to know is...What happens if they can't decide on this final count?

The prosecution is willing to take a partial verdict and declare a mis-trial, but Scholl isn't so quick to decide.

Right now Scholl has asked for a 5 minute recess (which is really turning into a good 20 minutes). He's debating about what to do and whether or not he wants to accept the partial verdict.
