will probably take six months to select a jury

Next week? How long does it normally take to seat a jury?

It's done in stages. No one was going to be selected today. First the judge will winnow out those who self-acknowledge there bias. Those that get past that stage answer a 7 page questionnaire and the judge may disqualify some of them based on their answers. Then the lawyers get to question them and they can challenge up to ten for no cause and can ask the judge to disqualify others for cause -- although one should keep in mind that those jurors already made it through the judge's assessment of their questionnaire answers.

(Asking because I have a jury summons in the near future.)

It is very rare jury questions are even written.

When I went through voir dire 4 years ago, it sure seemed half the questions were canned. Like they were used in every trial.
The others were pretty generic. But, they didn't feel like questions that would need a lot of prior consideration.
Admittedly, the case wasn't high profile like this one.

they'll have 12 tomorrow. For the sake of justice, I want you to be right.

No matter what that judge says, if I had money, I would bet every cent that a year from now they are still fighting about seating a jury.

I hear you, "it doesn't work that way" I get it. I agree. Somehow that never seems to apply to Trump.

I based my assumptions on how things have worked for him in the past. I still don't see this trial going quickly. I hope it does but this guy has been getting away with stuff for decades so it's perfectly reasonable to doubt that will change.

At least in this case. I dunno, do you think they'd consider that cause for dismissal?
