“You are at the end of your service in this case,” presiding Judge A. Joe Fish told the jurors in a Dallas court before declaring a mistrial on the vast majority of the nearly 200 counts applying to the six accused, including the Holy Land Foundation itself.”

The Foreperson screwed this thing up and the judge has got to be POed.

What does a "mistrial" mean? I have never been quite clear on that.
Does the nature of the court and the case have an influence on its definition?
