Alternates are included on a jury to ensure that a trial can proceed smoothly even if a regular juror becomes unable to continue for any reason, such as illness or personal emergencies. This helps maintain the integrity of the jury's deliberations and the overall judicial process by ensuring that the jury remains at full strength throughout the trial. Alternates also provide a backup to safeguard against potential biases or influences that may arise if a juror is absent.
