FAQ
In the United States, criminal defendants who face serious felony charges are almost always afforded the right to a trial by a 12-member jury. A few states, however, allow these trials to proceed before six-member juries, even when a defendant faces a mandatory life sentence.
The process of questioning and excusing jurors continues until 12 persons are accepted as jurors for the trial. Alternate jurors may also be selected. The judge and attorneys agree that these jurors are qualified to decide impartially and intelligently the factual issues in the case.
This Note explores the dual jury system in which each defendant in a joint trial has his or her own jury to decide guilt or innocence.
Petit Jury This is a much lower standard of proof than in a criminal trial since no party's freedom is at issue in a civil matter. Learn about the types of cases heard in federal courts. Petit juries are comprised of 6-12 people. Trials are generally public, but jury deliberations are private.
P. 3.260. A defendant may in writing waive a jury trial with the consent of the state.
As prospective jurors are needed for specific trials or grand juries, jury pools are randomly selected from the list of qualified participants. Panels of prospective jurors are then randomly selected for each jury trial.
Unanimous 12 Person Jury Required For criminal charges, both misdemeanors and felonies, California requires a unanimous 12 person jury to render a verdict of “guilty” or “not guilty.” If even just one of the 12 jurors disagrees with the other 11 after careful consideration of the evidence, this results in a hung jury.
P. 3.260. A defendant may in writing waive a jury trial with the consent of the state.
Make the evidence clear and understandable. Give the jury road-maps as you put it together with them. Use diagrams or document summaries — anything and everything so the jury understands that you are doing whatever is in your control to give them the tools to put together the evidence.
