There is hope for us. Chin said that he once had a juror who claimed he was bitter about the court system because he had just gone through a divorce. Delvecchio said she had a similar experience with a business executive who pleaded to be excused from jury duty. And later he said 'It was so fabulous. It's a fear of the unknown, being a juror.
People naturally dread the unknown.
So these findings are refreshing. Right Chin said he believes that the results of the survey should signal to lawyers that jurors expect to be treated respectfully. They expect lawyers to be well prepared. They don't like to have their time wasted, so we have to be cautious that we're doing a good job. That means for judges not having a lot of recesses and trying to schedule the case so that we use their time efficiently.
