A quick definition of joint verdict:

A joint verdict is a decision made by a group of people, usually a jury, about the facts of a case. It can cover multiple parties involved in a lawsuit. This is different from a directed verdict, where a judge takes the case away from the jury because there is only one reasonable decision based on the evidence. A joint verdict can also be a compromise verdict, where jurors concede some issues to avoid a deadlock. However, a verdict can be considered defective if it has irregularities or legal inadequacies.

A more thorough explanation:

A joint verdict is a decision made by a jury that covers two or more parties involved in a lawsuit. It is a single verdict that applies to all parties. For example, in a case involving multiple defendants, the jury may reach a joint verdict that finds all defendants guilty or not guilty.

One example of a joint verdict is in a case where two people are accused of stealing a car. The jury may reach a joint verdict that finds both defendants guilty of the crime.

Another example is in a case where multiple plaintiffs are suing a company for damages. The jury may reach a joint verdict that awards damages to all plaintiffs.

Overall, a joint verdict is a single decision made by a jury that applies to multiple parties involved in a lawsuit.
