In the United States, an accused individual is guaranteed the right to a jury trial in criminal cases, as outlined in the Sixth Amendment of the Constitution. This right typically entails an impartial jury composed of peers from the community where the crime allegedly occurred. The jury must reach a unanimous verdict in most criminal cases for a conviction to occur. In civil cases, the right to a jury trial is provided under the Seventh Amendment, but it is not as universally guaranteed as in criminal cases.
