In most States it's 21, however, in some States it's much older. The reasoning is the older the juror, the more level-headed and wise that person will be to decide some strangers fate based solely on the evidence presented.

Answer

Anyone over 18 is subject to being called for jury duty. Jurors are normally pulled from voting registrations and driver's license records. High school and college students are normally able to defer or avoid jury service due to school obligations, and that age group is commonly under represented.

While some attorneys may automatically dismiss younger potential jurors, their youth and inexperience is not an automatic bar from jury duty. Instead, these factors would be considered during the voir dire process.
