What are the advantages of one-day/one-trial?
Some advantages include: Jury service that is limited to the longer of one day or one trial reduces the hardship associated with service, thus reducing the need for exemptions or excuses from jury service; The reduced number of persons excused with one-day/one-trial jury service terms increases the representative and inclusive nature of the jury pool; One-day/one-trial jury service terms encourage courts to make more efficient use of juror time (since they have only one day to use the prospective jurors services), thus increasing juror satisfaction with jury service; and Because one-day/one-trial jury service terms require courts to summon greater numbers of prospective jurors, more persons have the educational experience of serving on a jury, which is generally a positive experience.
