Before a trial, the prosecutor and defense attorney select a jury through a process called voir dire. During this process, potential jurors are questioned to assess their suitability for the case, ensuring they can remain impartial. Both sides can challenge or dismiss certain jurors, ultimately agreeing on a final panel that will hear the case. The selected jurors are tasked with evaluating the evidence and rendering a verdict.
