A civil jury is a group of citizens selected to hear evidence in a civil trial and make a decision based on that evidence. Unlike a criminal jury, which determines guilt or innocence, a civil jury resolves disputes between individuals or organizations, often involving issues like contracts, property, or personal injury. The jury's role is to assess the facts and determine liability, often deciding on monetary compensation for the injured party. In a civil trial, the jury typically consists of six to twelve members, depending on the jurisdiction. They listen to testimonies, review evidence, and deliberate to reach a verdict. The decision is usually made by a majority vote, and the outcome can significantly impact the lives of those involved, including the parties and their legal representatives, such as lawyers and judges.
