Jurymen

Pioneering photog Eadweard Muybridge, who shot Major Harry Larkyns dead for impregnating his wife, is found not guilty; Calif. jurymen say they’d have done the same.

From this pool of available jurymen the court hears and excludes those with conflicts of interest in the case, after which the defendants and plaintiffs have the right to exclude a number of members, varying by county and group.

The appointed jurymen are divided into two groups, in most counties the first with sixteen members and the second with eight.
