0 in the United States, a jury which decides whether there is enough evidence for a person to be brought to trial. -- bồi thẩm đoàn
In the case of the assize grand jury the study of the period before 1714 is as yet impossible, due to lack of sources.
However, land alone could not guarantee a man a grand jury seat.
These seem to have included grand jury membership.
Yet being a magistrate did not guarantee a man a place on a grand jury, nor were grand juries composed wholly of magistrates.
Ultimately, gaining a grand jury seat depended on being selected for service by the high sheriff.
The evidence also suggests that a man's religion and his politics played some part in defining his suitability for grand jury service.
Rather, service on the grand jury reached some way down the social scale, and could be undertaken by men from outside the established church.
Holding an important agency seems to have qualified a man for grand jury service from a much earlier date, however.
