When a jury trial is scheduled for 9 a.m., jurors are typically instructed to arrive at least 30 minutes early, which means they should plan to be there by 8:30 a.m. This allows time for check-in, orientation, and any preliminary instructions from the court. However, jurors should always check the specific instructions provided by the court, as requirements can vary.
No. Show your jury summons to your employer. By law they must excuse you from work to appear in answer to the summons. Report to court at the time and date specified.
Opening statements by the lawyers at a trial are not evidence. The statements indicate to the jury what the lawyers believe the evidence will show. For further information on how a trial proceeds, please see the related link below.
Opening Statement.
It would appear that if your case was a "Bench Trial" and you can prove malfeasance on the part of the judge you may have grounds to appeal your case.HOWEVER, if your case was tried by a jury and the jury found you guilty, You would have to show strong evidence that the judge swayed the trial and/or the jury's decision against you.
in most states if the cop doesn't show up, the case is dismissed.
They don't show you the jury's answers so you don't officially know who the jury is leaning for
In some legal systems, a judge has the authority to overturn a jury verdict if there are legal grounds to do so. This typically involves issues such as legal errors during the trial, jury misconduct, or the verdict being against the weight of the evidence presented. However, judges generally show deference to jury decisions and do not overturn them lightly.
Your question is unclear. In the USA, a defendant does NOT HAVE TO testify at his trial, ever. The defendant is the one accused of committing the crime. He does not have to say anything (OJ Simpson did NOT testify in his first trial, Scott Peterson did NOT testify at his trial.) The Prosecutor will present his case (with all his evidence and witnesses) explaining to the jury (or judge) WHY the evidence shows the defendant committed the crime. The Defense Attorney will present his case (with all his evidence and witnesses) explaining to the jury (or judge) WHY the evidence does NOT show the defendant committed the crime. The defendant does not have to be one of those witnesses. He cannot be forced to testify.
As of my last update in October 2023, "Style by Jury" does not currently air on the W Network. The show, which features makeovers determined by a jury of peers, originally aired on the network but has since concluded its run. For the latest programming updates, it's best to check the W Network's official website or schedule.
During the "Voire Dire" portion of jury selection, a certain number of jurors can be "challenged" by both the prosecution and the defense. They eliminate from jury consdideration those potential jurors whom they believe may display leanings, or could possibly show favoritism, towards one side or the other. It is standard practice in jury selection.
