If One Juror Doesn't Show Up Can Judge Still go Forward with Trial? NY Attorney Oginski Explains
If One Juror Doesn't Show Up Can Judge Still go Forward with Trial? NY Attorney Gerry Oginski Explains http://www.oginski-law.com/library/in... 516-487-8207 Email: [email protected] Six jurors were selected to sit in judgment of your case. Two alternate jurors were also selected. That's a safety measure in case one of the main jurors can't serve. Six jurors are supposed to be in court each and every day. Listening to testimony. Looking at evidence. Evaluating witnesses. Deciding who is believable and who is not believable. Who is credible. One day, juror #2 fails to show up. He doesn't call. He doesn't write. He just doesn't show up. Can the judge proceed forward with only 5 main jurors? Does the judge have to get one of the alternate jurors to take the missing juror's place? Can the attorneys agree to go forward with only 5 jurors, even though there are alternate jurors just waiting for the chance to be one of the main jurors? Watch the video to learn more...
