N.Y. C.P.L.R. 4113 — Disagreement by jury is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

§ 4113. Disagreement by jury. (a) Unanimous verdict not required. A verdict may be rendered by not less than five-sixths of the jurors constituting a jury.

(b) Procedure where jurors disagree. Where five-sixths of the jurors constituting a jury cannot agree after being kept together for as long as is deemed reasonable by the court, the court shall discharge the jury and direct a new trial before another jury.
