| Summary: | Background: An experience serving jury duty prompted reflection on the parallels between evidenced based medicine and our legal system.
Findings: The steps of the legal system can be tied to each step of the practice of evidenced based medicine.
Implications: Patients should be included in evidence based decisions. Pharmacists can act as resources for other providers practicing evidenced based medicine. Educators can use this analogy to teach evidence based medicine.
