A struck jury is a multi-step process of selecting a jury from a pool. First potential jurors are eliminated for hardship. Second jurors are eliminated for cause by conducting voir dire until there is a pool available that is exactly the size of the final jury (including required alternates) plus the number of peremptory challenges available to each side. Then the two sides exercise their peremptory challenges on the remaining pool, usually alternating.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=North Carolina Lawyers Weekly )〕 This procedure "has its roots in ancient common law heritage".〔''Swain v. Alabama'', . URL accessed on 10 May 2006.〕 Commentators have offered the following (and other) advantages of a struck jury over a "strike and replace" jury: *It is capable of producing a less biased jury than the alternative; *There is no reason to hold back on use of peremptories, because lawyers have full knowledge of who will remain on the panel; *Remedying an alleged Batson violation is easier, since court and counsel can view all the strikes and a ruling can be made before any juror is excused.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=JURY SELECTION )〕 ==Alternative Use== In older usage, and still in some jurisdictions a struck jury entails the formation of a jury pool of men who possess special qualifications to judge of the facts of a case. This was a common provision in U.S. insanity cases in the late 19th century. This usage is more often called a special jury.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Bouviers Law Dictionary 1856 Edition )〕 It derives in part from the nomenclature in use in England in the 18th century. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「struck jury」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
