Definitions for "Jury selection"
The process whereby, according to law and precedent, members of a particular trial jury are chosen.
the process by which the judge, the prosecutor, and the defense attorney screen citizens who have been called to jury duty to determine if they will give a fair hearing in a particular trial.
When a judge is ready to begin selecting jurors for a trial, the judge sends a request to the jury assembly room to send a jury panel to the courtroom so that the judge and lawyers may question the panel and select the number of jurors needed for that trial. The questions help the judge and lawyers determine whether the jurors can serve without bias or prejudice or whether some reason exists that might interfere with the juror's ability to serve. This process is also known as "voir dire."
