how the jurors are selected
A juror may be excused from the panel if it is shown that the juror cannot act impartially concerning the case to be heard. In addition, each side is allowed to remove a given number of jurors from the panel without having to show any reason. The trial jury will be the first 6 to 12 of the remaining jurors on the panel. If you are not chosen for a jury, you will be sent home. If you have been chosen to serve on a jury, you will now see our justice system in action.
