Generally, the jury's discussion is private, and no one but the jury is involved (or present). That being said, I'm aware of cases when the jury called for one (or both) of the attorneys to ask questions, but even then, the attorneys answered the questions and left the room.

Should lawyers be emotion-less in order to be objective?

Not necessarily.The defense attorney's responsibilities do not require objectivity. Of course, if the defense attorney can objectively prove that the defendant is innocent, it helps, but most defense attorneys are well-aware of their client's guilt. Their responsibility is to get the defendant the best deal possible, which many times requires them to appeal to the emotions of the judge, prosecutor, and jury.The prosecutor should be a little more objective. The prosecutor is expected to provide tangible evidence that the defendant is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt; however, the prosecutor, too, may appeal to the emotions of the jury. You'll commonly hear prosecutors make remarks about the victim's personal life, representing them as an upstanding person, thus making the jury more likely to convict and the judge more likely to sentence strictly.Both should show SOME objectivity; however, if they're acting "emotion-less", they would not be adequately doing their jobs.Emotion-less objectivity is better suited for an investigator.

Will a court hear a charitable immunity case?

Yes, it will if it has original jurisdiction to hear tort cases. Charitable immunity is a common affirmative defense raised by charitable organizations when a person injured while receiving the benefits provided by that organization sues them for damages. If the court can hear the plaintiff's tort case, it can entertain an affirmative defense to it. It also goes without saying (although I am saying it here) that any appellate court having appellate jurisdiction over that trial court can hear an appeal of the disposition of the charitable immunity defense.
