Most people aged 18-69 are eligible for jury service. When summoned, they report to the jury assembly area of a courthouse where 15 potential jurors are selected at a time. 12 jurors are randomly chosen to hear a case. The prosecution and defense can challenge choices for bias. If seated on the jury, one must swear an oath to serve impartially. Juries typically need a unanimous verdict but a majority may be accepted in some cases.
