What database does the LA Superior Court use to summon potential jurors? Is it the voter registration list?
Favorite Answer
A common method for drafting jurors is to draw them at random from electoral rolls (known as allotment or sortition), lists of licensed drivers, or other broad-based lists of residents in the community (e.g., tax rolls, public utility consumers). Increasingly, courts combine multiple lists to compile the master jury list. In the U.S., the most common combination of source-lists is registered voters and licensed drivers–employed in 19 states.
I did no further research to determine which were the 19 states which employed this method, as I did not know whether you meant Louisiana or Los Angeles. I do not know about Los Angeles, but in Louisiana, potential jurors are selected (supposedly randomly) from the voter registration rolls.
