"no jury nullifcation" - I don't think so. The judge may tell you you need to "decide only the facts" and accept the law - in fact, he or she will do that in every state - but ultimately, why a juror decides "guilty" or "not guilty" is ALWAYS up to that individual juror, and there is NOTHING the courts, the judge, or anyone else can do or say to stop that juror.

(Sorry, I know this is slightly OT, but EVERYONE should know the power of the juror, especially if they are a juror.)
