Jury Service

Jury service is a civic duty where selected individuals from the community are called to evaluate evidence and determine the facts in a legal case, usually a trial. Jurors listen to testimonies, review evidence, and apply the law as instructed by the judge to decide whether the defendant is guilty or liable. Serving on a jury ensures that legal decisions reflect community standards and provide a fair, impartial hearing. It is a vital part of the justice system, promoting transparency, fairness, and public participation in legal proceedings.
