Answer:

Edmonson v. Leesville Concrete Co:

Thaddeus Edmonson was AFAM construction worker that was injured on the job, so he sues Leesville company.

Leesville lawyer strikes 2 AFAM jurors peremptorily (no cause listed), and supreme court holds removal of jurors because of their race is prohibited in both criminal and civil cases.

Had no good reason to strike them and cannot strike them based on race!!!
