I have a small comment on that.
Many trials I've been involved in have had naturally occurring breaks, like a four-day weekend for Thanksgiving or the holidays, or the Jewish holidays in September and October. There are many breaks in a trial. In New Orleans, they break for Mardi Gras, and their court is closed for a week. What's done in some of those situations is that mini-summations are allowed. When the jurors come back, each side is allowed to give a very mini-summation of the evidence that has occurred so far, just to kind of bring everyone back and up to speed with what's occurred.
