It is illegal for anyone in a courtroom - be it judge, attorney, defendant, or juror - to argue for jury nullification of a law. Why? Because jury nullification was often argued to all-white juries by white attorneys of white defendants who were accused or murdering a non-white person. It was used to allow murderers to walk.

It is legal to find a defendant guilty or not guilty. It is illegal to argue that the law is unjust and should not be enforced.
