At its July meeting, the New Jersey State Bar Association (NJSBA) Board of Trustees supported numerous bills and directed the Pandemic Task Force Committee on the Resumption of Jury Trials to study the Judiciary’s recently issued plan to restart trials in September. The meeting was held via conference call because of the COVID-19 public health crisis.
The NJSBA’s Committee on the Resumption of Jury Trials made a number of recommendations for a multi-stage process for jury selection, many of which were incorporated in the Judiciary’s plan.
