How Grand Juries Are Chosen and Operate in Court
Under judge supervision eighteen possible grand jurors are drawn. Nine serve six months and nine twelve months. Prospective jurors take an oath and must meet qualifications: state citizen, county resident, 21 or older, physically and mentally competent, no felony record, not declared non compos mentis, and not served as juror in two prior years. The foreman serves six months and may be reappointed. Grand juries inspect the county home, workhouse or jail and report on facilities and inmates.
