Is this New York law still binding? Juries in civil cases don't have to be unanimous

[Goodheart]

Looks like a 1937 law says only 10 of 12 required for a decision:

3. It's not unanimous in a lot of jurisdictions for civil cases.

I know Florida is like that as well.

4. lower standard of guilt in civil cases as well.....

I'm not a lawyer, but I've heard it's a preponderance of evidence standard as opposed to beyond a reasonable doubt.

So easier to convict.....

5. Civil case requires a preponderance of the evidence (over 50%) and not the criminal requirement of

beyond a reasonable doubt.
