There are two types of federal juriesâtrial juries (also referred to as âpetitâ juries) and grand juries. The Jury Selection and Service Act establishes the process for selecting federal jurors and outlines juror qualifications. A civil federal âpetitâ jury is comprised of 6 to 12 individuals.
What is a Jury? A jury consists of twelve ordinary citizens who are able to apply their common-sense to the matter of determining the guilt or innocence of someone accused of an offence. The basis for a twelve person jury is that it is a representative cross section of the local community and therefore are more likely to judge in line with generally accepted values of the society. Jurors represent diverse backgrounds and therefore, individual prejudices are likely to be neutralised. Of what importance is jury service? Jury service is a very critical element of the justice system in our country. The justice system in Jamaica like other democracies rests on the concept of trial by jury. Trial by jury ensures that the people are accountable to each other rather than to a government appointed judge for decisions made in such trials.
