On jury duty tomorrow – question on categorizing last case I was on?
K.B. asked:
I want to remember, in case it comes up in jury selection, what type of crime a case was that we tried. It was for Cocaine possession for the intent to sell. Is the best way to refer to that, simply as a felony? Or how else can I categorize that so I sound resonably intelligent!
Also, has anyone had the experience of a lawyer, or judge, deciding to excuse a potential juror when that prior case did not come to a verdict because it was “hung”??? It wasn’t me, but I don’t mind being excused because it MIGHT have been me!
