I used to think attorneys were always bumped, but one time (jury duty summons) during voir dire one of the potential jurors mentioned that he was a former prosecutor. I was surprised he made it to voir dire, but even more surprised that he was selected to serve on the jury. The defense attorney didn't scratch him either.tommyg wrote: Anyone with any legal training is automatically culled out of being a juror
They also don't want felons who have had expierence with the law that is
why felons are ban from jury duty no jail house lawyers allowed on a jury.
Anyone who flames me for this statement is a nieve fool
Regarding nullification, it only works if you have suffient jurors to sway the decision. Otherwise, you'd just continue to deliberate or end up w/ a hung jury.
