MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Hall, 931 F.2d 898 (9th Cir. 1991):
Rulings on challenges for cause are reversed only for abuse of discretion. United States v. Brooklier, 685 F.2d 1208, 1223 (9th Cir.1982) (citing Dennis v. United States, 339 U.S. 162, 168 (1949)), cert. denied 459 U.S. 1206 (1983). In Bashor v. Risley, 730 F.2d 1228, 1236-37 (9th Cir.), cert. denied 469 U.S. 838 (1984), this court ruled that a district court does not abuse its discretion in denying a challenge for cause when a juror affirmatively states she can decide a case impartially.
