A lot of the times that happens to be a teacher because teachers just naturally are gathering people. Believe it or not, in trial, when you're picking a jury, most people won't pick teachers. Because most people tend to go the teacher's way. And so if a teacher is on the jury, they are very opinionated and they're very good at teaching others to match their opinion.

It's too much of a risk on a jury to have a teacher because you don't know, are they going to go for your side or the other side? Right. They're on your side. Great. That means most people are going to be on your side. It's just so funny how a lot of times teachers are very polarizing because they are very quick and they pick up on a lot of different things and they're great at.

just teaching, and juries, and jury deliberations, they'll teach other people. And so some people like that, some people don't.

Yeah. So first off, for anybody hearing, he said, in Texas, we call that and it's what it is. It's the process of asking a jury questions. So if you ever got a jury summons, you go into the room. And there's a whole bunch of prospective jurors that they call the veneer. And attorneys get to ask them questions. And then the attorneys get to pick the people they want to be in the jury.

It's a whole process that's supposed to push in fairness. Now, the question is, do you think that there's a way that we can kind of sense this person's personality, which way they're going to go, what's their temperature? I would say yes. So what I like to do and what I've gotten good at is you use a prospective juror almost as an early witness. So I might ask a question.

I've done it before where, you know, the officer, let's say at an accident, the officer really didn't pay attention to my client. He was going to get talking to other people in the accident, but never really asked my client any questions. And so I asked the jury, have you ever been in an accident? Hands raised. Are police officers involved? Yes.

Have you ever had it to where a police officer really didn't ask you anything? A few people answered, so I get to talk to them. Well, how did that make you feel? Well, I kind of felt dismissed by that. Okay, noted. And so anybody else ever felt dismissed in a case where you felt like you weren't hearing your point out and you knew what you knew and some other hands were raised?
