If you receive a letter in the mail saying you have jury duty it is random pick and does not usually pick two people from the same family, but it is possible.

Another View: As stated above, it is possible that both a husband and a wife might be chosen for the same jury pool, however it is HIGHLY unlikely that they would be chosen to sit on the same jury. Reason: during Voire Dire one or both attorneys would challenge offone or the other due to the likelihood of the jury verdict being appealed if the case did not go either ones way, citing lack of impartiality due to the undue influence of one juror upon the other.

In a clinical setting can a wife as healthcare assistant chaperone the doctor who is her husband?

In North America, the answer is yes. If a female patient subsequents wants to sue her Doctor based on an alleged transgression or violation, the case will have to be conducted and decided upon in a court of law. A Doctor's wife (under oath) can testify to her husband's conduct. She is legitimately describing what she saw while in her husband's examination room. If the case decision is being made by a jury, one can always argue that the Doctor's wife would lie to protect her husband. However, a competent judge will instruct the jury to disregard any preconceived notions or assumptions that they may establish concering the wife-husband relationship. I must add, however, that a jury may disregard the judge's instructions if this is not the first time that the Doctor is being sued for the same reason.
