A mistrial means that a trial in a court of law is stopped before a verdict or decision is reached due to some legal error or problem. It may be necessary to have a new trial in these cases because the original trial did not happen correctly. Mistrials can happen for many reasons, such as an improper jury selection, the discovery of new evidence, or a problem with the judge or the lawyers. The word "mistrial" is often used in the context of criminal cases, but it can apply to other types of legal proceedings as well.
