Nota, que un Vicount avoit returne un panel ove x Tales: & ore l' entiere panel ove les x Tales fuit demande, |
18 |
The sheriff returned a panel (of additional prospective jurors) with Decem Tales.
The whole panel was demanded, with the Decem Tales, and all the prospective jurors appeared.
Defendant(?) challenged the array because it was made by the undersheriff of persons named (denominated) by plaintiff.
Plaintiff replied that the array was well and duly made.
Two triors were chosen (and sworn, one from the principal panel and one from the Decem Tales panel).
Plaintiff said that the array of the Decem Tales (additional prospective jurors) was affirmed because defendant had only challenged the principal array.
Newton CJCP said that the array of the Decem Tales was not affirmed.
A clerk said that the array of the Decem Tales should be demanded again, so defendant could say what he would to them.
The array of Decem Tales was demanded.
Defendant challenged the array of Decem Tales.
The parties agreed that the same two triors could try this challenge. |
Newton CJCP: the better form has been to have said that the inquest (jury) ought not be taken by those arrays, and then the challenge would go to all
Sjt Portyngton (for P): thus will ensue this inconvenience; only two triors ought to try the array (argument that the array of the Decem Tales ought not be tried twice for favour)
Brown, Clerk of CP: it is good to demand those of the Decem Tales again, and to see what the party will say to them
Sjt Portyngton: if they are demanded, and the party does not want to challenge the array, but (wants to challenge) the individual jurors (le polles), and any perhaps are sworn, the others who are sworn to try the principal panel are void; when the entire array of the principal panel and also of the Decem Tales is challenged, the triors ought to be chosen, one from the principal panel and the other from the Tales |
