Blood pressure is governed by five elements--the strength of the heartbeat, the volume of blood, the viscosity of the blood, the resistance of the arterioles, and the elasticity of the arterial walls. An abnormality of any of these can cause the blood pressure to be too high or too low.
Depending on the complexity of the case a trial can last anywhere from one day to six months or longer. If you are asking how long a rape prosecution takes you are probably looking at 6 months to a couple of years.
How long is jury service? Jurors who do not sit on a jury trial may serve for as little as 1â2 days. However, even if not needed for a trial, a juror may be asked to be available or on call for up to five days. Those who are selected to serve on a jury are required to serve on only one trial. The judge informs the jurors how long the trial is expected to last. Length of service on a grand jury may vary from two weeks to a month or more. For more information about service as a grand juror see the Unified Court Systemâs âGrand Jurorâs Handbook.â Are jurors paid? The jury fee is $40 per day. If service extends beyond 30 days the court may authorize an additional $6 per day per juror. The fee is paid by the State or the employer depending on (1) the day of service and (2) the size of employer. Employersâ jury fee obligations are explained below.
