When leading up to the closing arguments, a bus can be seen discharging the jurors into a public entrance of the courthouse. Jurors can be seen walking through a gauntlet of spectators and reporters. As with many high-profile trials, court officials usually take steps to ensure that jurors are brought into the courthouse through a sally port that is closed to the public.
This ensures that the jurors remain safe, insulated from hearing news about the case and anonymous to the general public, at least until the conclusion of the trial.

When Rohr confronts Fitch in the bathroom, someone tries to come in and Rohr shoves him out before "locking" the bathroom door. However, there is no latch on the door frame so sliding the bolt doesn't do anything.

When Fitch is viewing a video of Nick, we see it paused with embedded timecode paused along with the video. the last two numbers (:39) indicate the frames, not seconds (you can tell this by the speed at which the numbers run and the fact the "tens" number never passes 3) when in play mode.

During attorney Rohr's closing argument in court, he addresses the gun company boss "chief CEO." The word "chief" is redundant since CEO stands for "chief executive officer."

Nick tells Frank that he had a friend who was killed when his helicopter was shot down over Kuwait "12 years ago today." A computer screen indicates that the movie takes place in November 2003, but all the Desert Storm fighting in Kuwait happened in February 1991.
