Be careful to not commit perjury during jury selection. They will almost certainly ask you if you have any beliefs that would prevent you from ruling based solely on the law; they want to know if you know that you are allowed to rule however you wish, regardless of what the law states, and are willing to do so.
So either lie, but know that you are lying and accept the risk, or tell them "yes" when they ask you that.
- NoMoreNicksLeft 12y agoI define "belief" quite a bit differently than they do, but I'm also ignorant of the fact that we don't mean the same thing for that word. Therefor, I wouldn't be lying if I said "no".
- Crito 12y agoSounds good to me. Personally, I'd risk it as well, since negative outcomes for me are unlikely.
