Why was I dismissed as a juror in a DUI case?
I recently was selected to serve as a juror on a DUI case. I was the next to last person selected (the last woman). A man was the last selected and was the alternate. While sitting in the jury room waiting for the trial to begin, the bailiff came in and told me that I had been released from serving and that I had to leave. After reading the disposition of the case, I saw that the defense had made a preemptory motion to have me dismissed and it was granted by judge. I am very troubled by this and would like to know why I was let go. Can you give me any insight into this?
