There is case law suggesting that jurors can be removed if you suspect they are going to nullify the law.
There is also case law supporting jury instructions against nullification and for preventing defense attorneys from using it as a tactic.
I'd go so far as to say that there is an explicit bias against jury nullification in the courts system.
The wikipedia article is particularly weak on this subject, but the reference list is good: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_nullification#United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_nullification#United_Stat...
