What is the difference between the responses of prospective juror No. 1 and Prospective Juror 12?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Henderson, 260 Cal.Rptr.3d 104, 46 Cal.App.5th 533 (Cal. App. 2020):

This by no means reflects a " substantially similar combination of responses, in all material respects, to [prospective juror No. 12]." ( People v. Winbush, supra , 2 Cal.5th at p. 442, 213 Cal.Rptr.3d 1, 387 P.3d 1187.) Prospective juror No. 12 expressed reticence in serving as a juror only because of a prepaid, important work-related conference she wished to attend, not because she felt incompetent to make a proper decision in the case. Her responses and attitude were entirely unlike those of prospective juror No. 1.
