Trivia
Robert McWade who plays the judge repeated his role when the film was remade as We're on the Jury (1937).

Errores
The murder weapon would not have been loaded when it was placed in evidence. I would have been checked too many times and gone through too many hands.

Citas
Spencer B. Dazy: [as Dazy is distributing meals to the jurors] And what was yours?
Mrs. Dace: Oh, mine was a white-meated turkey in a spinached toast with just a smatterin' of butter, lettuce with not the slightest bit of dressing, and slenderest of shoestring potatoes, and the weakest of green tea.
Spencer B. Dazy: Heh-heh, you'll have to come back Friday for a fitting.

Créditos curiosos
In the opening credits, the cast list is shown over action, now commonplace but rarely, if ever, done at the time. During the "The End" credit the verdict of the jury can be heard.

Surprisingly good B-movie with abrupt ending

Probably not the ideal movie to educate someone on how the American jury system operates, "Ladies Of The Jury" is more of a wacky comic version of "12 Angry Men" - which it predates by 25 years! Edna May Oliver is fab, especially if you're already a fan, but what really makes this limited-set B-movie stand out from the rest is a wide array of colorful and distinct characters, acted with gusto by a largely - if not completely - unknown cast; I particularly liked one couple where the man has a flair for the poetic and the woman looks to be what you would call in modern terms a "nerd" (an unusual female portrayal for that time). If there is one flaw in this movie, it's the very abrupt ending - in fact, this may be the only movie in history where the resolution occurs over "The End" title card! **1/2 out of 4.
