Verdict of Judge in criminal proceedings

the Sheriff is to repeat the process described in subsection 23(1) until the number of jurors required by the jury precept has been chosen.
Jurors not liable to be summoned until list exhausted
24. Where a person whose name appears on the jury list has, during the time when that jury list has been in use, attended the Court in pursuance of a summons under this Act or served as a juror, that person shall not be summoned as a juror until all other persons whose names so appear have been so summoned or have so served.

Division 1 — Criminal Trials
Striking jury in criminal cases
31. (1) At a criminal trial, the proper officer is to draw the jury cards out of the ballot-box one at a time, and call aloud the name, address and occupation on each card, until 12 persons appear and remain approved as indifferent, and those persons, on being duly sworn, are to be the jury to try the issues at the trial.
(2) If the whole number of the jury cards is exhausted, by challenge or otherwise, before 12 persons so appear and remain approved, the Crown or the prisoner may pray a tales and, thereupon, the Court may command the Sheriff forthwith to appoint from amongst such of the bystanders as are qualified and liable to serve as jurors as many good and lawful persons as are sufficient to make up 12 persons for the trial of the issue.
(3) A card bearing the name of a juror who has been called but not sworn shall, immediately after the jury has been sworn, be returned to the ballot-box.

32. Where a jury has tried, or been drawn to try a criminal issue, the Court may, if no objection is made on behalf of the Crown or another party to another criminal issue —
(a) try that other issue with that jury without the jury cards of the jurors being returned to the ballot-box and redrawn; or
(b) order the names of any jurors to the withdrawal of whom the parties consent, or who are justly challenged or excused by the Court, to be set aside and other jury cards to be drawn from the ballot-box and try that other issue with the residue of the original jury and with such jurors whose names appear on the cards so drawn as appear and are approved as indifferent.
Division 2 — Civil Trials
Striking jury in civil cases
33. (1) When a civil issue that is to be tried with a jury is called on for trial, the proper officer —
(a) shall draw the jury cards out of the ballot-box one at a time and call aloud the name, address and occupation on each card until a number of jurors (being jurors who, after all challenges for cause are allowed, remain approved as indifferent) equal to twice the number of jurors required to be empanelled appear; and
(b) shall compile a list of the names of those jurors.
(2) If the whole number of jury cards is exhausted, by challenge or otherwise, before the list contains the names of a number of jurors equal to twice the number of jurors required to be empanelled —
(a) the Court may command the Sheriff to appoint from amongst such of the bystanders as are qualified and liable to serve as jurors as many good and lawful men as are sufficient to make up that number; and
(b) the Sheriff, upon so doing, shall place the names of the jurors so appointed on the list.
(3) Upon the list being completed, the list shall be delivered by the Sheriff successively to the plaintiff and to the defendant, each of whom may strike out from the list a number of names equal to one fourth of the number of names contained in the list.
(4) From the names that then remain on the list, a number of jurors equal to the number required shall be selected by the proper officer by taking names from the list in the order in which they appear on the list until the required number is obtained.
(5) The jurors so selected shall be sworn and empanelled as the jurors for the trial.
(6) A card bearing the name of a juror who has been called but not empanelled shall, immediately after the jury has been sworn, be returned to the box.

(8) In this section, “the plaintiff” includes the plaintiff’s counsel, solicitor or agent and the “the defendant” includes the defendant’s counsel, solicitor or agent.
Different issues may be tried by same jury in civil cases
34. (1) Where a jury has tried, or been drawn to try, a civil issue, the Court may, if no objection is made on behalf of the plaintiff or defendant to another civil issue —
(a) try that other issue with that jury without the jury cards of the jurors being returned to the ballot-box and redrawn; or
(b) order the names of any jurors to the withdrawal of whom the parties consent, or who are justly challenged or excused by the Court, to be set aside and other jurors to be selected in their stead and try that other issue with the residue of the original jury and with such jurors so selected as appear and are approved as indifferent.
(2) The selection of jurors for the purposes of paragraph 34(1)(b) shall be made in the same manner as the striking of a jury for the trial of a civil issue equal in number to the number of jurors to be so selected.
Reducing list where party does not appear
35. Where a plaintiff or defendant does not appear in person, or by counsel, solicitor or agent, names on the list of jurors may be struck out on his behalf under subsection 33(3) by the proper officer or by some other officer of the Court approved by the Court.

Right of challenge
36. Subject to the provisions of this Act, challenge to the array and to the polls may be made and allowed for such and the like cause, in such and the like form and manner and under and subject to the like laws, rules and Regulations in every respect as by law was or were established, used and practised in like cases in the Territory immediately before the commencement of this Act.

Informalities in summoning jurors
41. (1) An omission, error or irregularity by the Sheriff or any of his officers in the time and mode of service of a summons on a juror, or the summoning or return of a juror by a wrong name (where there is no question as to his identity), is not a cause of challenge either to the array or to the juror.
