I stumbled upon this accidentally, but upon doing so I got tied up doing a few other things so it ended up playing for a bit in the background. Now, I don’t have any reason to comment here other than for the pure appreciation I have for the group that made this video in such a realistic manner and for the individuals (actors) that did such a fantastic job portraying their particular roles within this video. So, with that said, I wanted to commend everyone that was involved in making this video for their efforts that went into it. This was perhaps the best example of taking a mock situation and presenting it in a manner that didn’t seem “Hollywood” or “amateur”, but authentic and real (barring the naming of the plaintiff and the defendant, as well as, the subsequently named key witnesses and associates of course. However, given the facetiousness of the names used in this mock scenario, one must give props to the absolute professionalism displayed by all of the actors involved in this production because this so easily could’ve lost its effectiveness if any of them were to crack up at the hilarity of the fake names used. If they would’ve succumb to this and broke character, even for the slightest second, this wouldn’t have been the very real representation that this is.) Now then, I know that this is a rather long comment that no one will really care to read and I know that my opinion doesn’t matter much here, but that’s neither here or their and therefore isn’t the intent of my comment anyhow. That comment is meant for those individuals that made this and it is to express my appreciation for their efforts. Although this not something I needed education on nor is it anything that applies to anything I do for a living or that really appeals to my interests, the fact is that this is a very important event within the legal process. For that point, it is quite evident that the education that this video provides, by way of its superb accuracy in depicting all aspects of this Voir dire process, will assist countless people, albeit attorneys, judges, law enforcement, legal or judicial professionals of any kind or citizens that may be summoned to participate in this process, and that assistance will be paramount in the assurance that such a process will run smoothly and efficiently in the future if this video is properly provided to any of those individuals mentioned that may be unfamiliar with what to expect in this kind of situation the education they may need. Eliminating any hiccups or factors that may slowdown this process is, in my opinion, is extremely important because time is money and that means tax payer’s money...in other words, the faster that this process can be carried out, the better. And, I think everyone can agree that freeing up more funds to be adequately allotted to other things that it could be more necessarily appropriated to is, without a doubt, always a good thing! So once again, AWESOME JOB 👏🏻 to everyone that created this educational video. You’re work will be greatly appreciated by citizens across the nation, IF THIS VIDEO IS CIRCULATED APPROPRIATELY OF COURSE, whether or not citizens that never have to be a part of this process know ever know about this video or not. For that, I thank you and I say that on behalf of all Americans, for your time and efforts for that went into making this. Now...if you can only make an educational video detailing the events that were involved in the Mueller investigation. Lord knows that would save tax payers a fortune and, even more so, it would eliminate a plethora of headaches that far too often become unnecessarily abound when proper legal procedures are hijacked and turned into circus proceedings that are filled with nothing more than nonsensical garbage at the behest of corrupt agendas, albeit personal, political or otherwise! Haha In all seriousness though, thank you fir what you’ve done with this video and for any and all other educational videos you have made in this likeness! 👍🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻🤓

@@papihuey A peremptory challenge is when one side gets to say "I don't want that juror" and does NOT have to give a reason -- which is okay, UNLESS the judge suspects there is a bad reason like racism or sexism (like if a lawyer only asked for black people to be removed). Each side has a LIMIT to how many peremptory challenges they have. / The opposite, for cause, means, for example, that the juror is too old OR not fair OR not able to be fair OR not able to be a juror for some other SPECIFIED reason.

I watched the entire video and was a little disappointed. I was half expecting the procedure to start out with the Judge asking specific questions to specific perspective jurors. Questions like where do you work, what you like to do with leisure time, hobbies, travel experiences, etc., as well as some legal questions. And then the attorneys would also move right down the line asking various questions. That was my experience when I went through voir dire. That didn't happen at all here. It's been a long time since I've been called so maybe it's different now. Maybe the juror questionnaire covers all that now. I don't really remember filling one out.

Some places do juries in “terms” that can last certain amounts of time. That means that when you are called to serve for a term, you’re in the pool for every case during that term. They can call you in for as many or as little cases as they want to. Most courthouses have electronic messaging systems now that notify you of when to report, but it used to be that you had to call the courthouse yourself to find out when you should report again.
