Jury instructions often cover the following issues: Introduction to the trial process: An overview of the trial process, the roles of the judge, jury, attorneys, and witnesses, and the importance of the jurys role in the legal system. Explanation of the burden of proof: a legal concept crucial to the trial system.
What is the likelihood that I will actually be selected to the jury? The probability is a little under 50 percent. Six people will be selected on a trial, but we initially summon more than 6 people in case some are excused for cause or on peremptory challenges.
For jury instructions to be effective, they must be clear and simple. Sentences should be short; instruc- tions should contain no more than a few sentences, cover only one topic, and be directly related to the circumstances of the case (they should not be abstract statements of the law).
Ignoring jury summons in California is a risky business. While you may not face immediate dire consequences for skipping out on your first summons, doing so triggers a red flag in the system. Generally, the first response from the court will be to issue a second summons. Think of it like a second chance.
Anyone appearing on the voter registration list is subject to jury service; however, it is not a requirement that you be a registered voter to serve as a juror. If you have moved, but still reside in the boundaries of our district, you will be subject to jury service.
