FAQ

The reason to use a jury is to have a group of ordinary people, completely informed of the evidence, decide on the facts of the case. To use a judge only, is to risk obtaining a purely technical, or even a personally biased view, not a consensus view. To try to a jury is, in concept at least, to try to the community.

When divorce and child custody cases go to trial, they're usually bench trials, i.e., a judge makes the decision. But in some states, a parent can request a jury trial for some of their issues. The judge often holds a bench trial first.

You may request to be excused for hardship by logging on to our JPortal website. If your request is not allowed on JPortal, you may need to contact the jury services office for further assistance by emailing jury@alamedaurts.ca or by calling the Jury Services Division at 510-891-6031.

We recommend a jury trial because it's better to convince multiple people that you are not-guilty rather than one person. In a jury trial, all jurors have to be unanimous–if we can convince one person that you are not guilty, then you won't be convicted. In a bench trial, we only advocate to one person: the judge.

Juries sometimes have difficulty understanding judicial instructions and complicated evidence, are susceptible to emotional appeals, may be biased, deliberate in secret without accountability, and require concentrated trial of all issues at once.

What's the difference between a Jury Trial and a Court Trial? In a jury trial, the decision of guilt or innocence is decided by either 6 or 12 citizens who listen to the evidence and make the decision. In a court trial, there is no jury present. The judge listens to the evidence and makes the decision.

Additionally, certain legal proceedings, such as probation violations or juvenile delinquency cases, typically do not involve juries. Understanding these exceptions is crucial for defendants to make informed decisions about their legal strategies.

Simply having a mental illness problem, such as depression, however, does not mean that you will lose custody of your child, either physical or legal. Many people suffer from mental illness, including depression and anxiety, and are great primary caregivers and decision makers for their children.
