N2  - Although efforts for investigating and prosecuting child abuse cases have increased little attention has been paid to juror response to child testimony. This paper, developed as part of a pilot study to test a questionnaire for polling jurors'' opinions in child sexual abuse cases, analyzes a case in which there was a reversal of outcome at retrial. Poll results of the jurors'' opinions suggest the need for testimony from law enforcement and child sexual abuse experts to explain children''s perception, memory, and recall of a reported experience.<p />
