What is my duty as a juror?
As a juror, you must be fair and impartial. Your actions and decisions must be free of any bias or prejudice. Your actions and decisions form the foundation of our judicial system. Both the United States and Texas Constitutions guarantee all people, regardless of race, religion, sex, national origin, or economic status, the right to trial by an impartial jury.
