If selected to be a juror, remember you are an important part of the justice system.
- Your job is to listen carefully to all the evidence during the trial.
- You must keep an open mind, follow the judge’s instructions, and make your decision only based on what you hear in court.
- You cannot talk about the case outside the courtroom.
Sometimes, juries are sequestered, which means they stay together away from others until they reach a decision. This doesn’t happen often.
