Serious Offenses Only ing to the Supreme Court, the jury-trial right applies only when "serious" offenses are at hand—petty offenses don't invoke it. For purposes of this right, a serious offense is one that carries a potential sentence of more than six months' imprisonment.
In a jury trial, a judge presides over the courtroom proceedings, and six or more citizens from the community are chosen as jurors to hear the evidence presented against you. These jurors determine whether a crime has been committed and whether you are criminally responsible for that crime.
When it is time to count votes, it is the presiding juror's duty to see that this is done properly. In a civil case, the judge will tell you how many jurors must agree in order to reach a verdict. In a criminal case, the unanimous agreement of all 12 jurors is required.
At a defendant's arraignment, if they enter a "not guilty" plea, there will be several pretrial trial proceedings designed to resolve the case. If a plea bargain is not reached, then the case will proceed to trial.
