In this age of social media, the Florida Supreme Court wants jurors to be clear -- don’t tweet or blog about the criminal case.

The state’s top court added some new jury instruction for criminal cases on Thursday, where trial judges must now also tell jurors during the selection process that:

“In this age of electronic communication, I want to stress that you must not use electronic devices or computers to talk about this case, including tweeting, texting, blogging, emailing, posting information on a website or chat room, or any other means at all. Do not send or accept any messages, including email and text messages, about your jury service.”   

Similar instructions are now also to be given before jurors are sworn in.

“I want to stress that this rule means you must not use electronic devices or computers to communicate about this case, including tweeting, texting, blogging, e-mailing, posting information on a website or chat room, or any other means at all. Do not send or accept any messages to or from anyone about this case or your jury service.”
