My internet connection is a little troublesome of late so this line sat for a second before the tweet loaded, I thought for a moment you had had to resort to desperate measures.

I can see the focus on the jury, because it's the one part of the process where keeping your distance from others is very difficult.

Other hearings can take place in reasonable safety.

I've no inside knowledge on this one, but it looks to me inevitable England and Wales will have to follow suit.

Trials due to last more than three days postponed in England and Wales.

From the decision, we can infer the Court Service thinks juries can be managed safely on a day to day basis.

What they are concerned about is a trial could be torpedoed if a juror's position changes overnight and they are forced into self isolation.

That could happen after day one or day two, but it becomes more likely the longer a trial proceeds, so the administrators are playing percentages.

Another point to bear in mind is a trial can already proceed with 11 or 10 jurors if one or two fall ill or die.

Thus it is very likely a trial of three days or fewer will complete one way or another.

Three days or fewer also accounts for the majority of trials, which means there will be a minimum of disruption.

Other hearings have been ordered to proceed as normal, albeit with increased use of telephone and video links.

The Court Service thinks jury trials can proceed safely, but a cautious juror might not.

This pic of a jury box is fairly typical.

Slightly more elbow room than on a train, but all the seats would be occupied so there's no chance of finding extra space.

A juror would also be expected to sit in his seat for a couple of hours at a time.

Would you be happy being a juror in the current climate?

It sounds to me rather like saying you can still go to the pub but only have one pint rather than two.

I suppose it is because by limiting trials at all the Court Service is accepting there is a risk.

But they are saying we expect you to take that risk for a short time rather than a longer one.

Why are you counting Migrants in Dover? I thought you lived 'up north'?

Absolutely, I suppose the question is whether we get to the point where they say we can not expect you to take any risk. What are the penalties for juror no shows?

 

[Ming the Merciless]

Agreed.
Have now moved to a bog-roll free system for home.

Next doors garden at night? Then wipe on their bush?
