Members of a grand jury are randomly chosen from a jury pool. Jury duty is a requirement for American citizens. Americans and typically summoned for jury duty as often as every four years. Grand Jury has long been considered one of the highest duties of citizenship and a unique opportunity for the individual citizen to participate in the administration of justice.
