true, they can request the judge to decide, in small claims you have to request a jury
A "bench trial" is a case heard by a judge without a jury. In a jury case, the jury decides the facts of the case -- what is true and not true -- and the judge decides the law. In a bench trial, the judge determines the facts and the law.
the answer is true
Yes, serving on a jury is a responsibility of Australian citizenship. In addition, this question appears on the Australian citizenship test.
No. A grand jury is a finder of fact, not a trial. You will not be found guilty based on a grand jury true bill.
Jury vetting occurs in every jury trial. Questions will be asked to the juror which will determine if the juror can render a fair and true verdict after listening the evidence in the case.
In a democratic country a jury is chosen at random.
First, their job is to come up with a "no true bill or true bill" decision, establishing if the case will go to trial (based on the amount of evidence present). Then, the grand jury must decide if a person is innocent or guilty based on what was revealed solely in the trial.
yes, true
A "no-true bill" is a grand jury's refusal to indict a suspected for a crime. Most felony cases require a grand jury to issue a "true bill" in order for a prosecutor to prosecute the offender. If a "no bill" is returned, the case is over with at that point.
false
Something about them getting an all White Jury.
