What are the Court’s procedures for jury voir dire?

The Court will ask lawyers for an estimated/desired time for voir dire and will grant “almost” all the time requested. Most cases will merit 30-45 minutes per side; however, the decision will be made on a case-by-case basis. Additional time may be granted if time is used effectively and the response of the venire warrants.

There also may be an opportunity to question a few jurors individually in connection with strikes for cause (which are to be taken up only outside the presence of the panel after voir dire). Challenges for cause will be taken up outside the presence of the venire at the conclusion of voir dire. Short juror questionnaires may be used when appropriate.

Contact the Bailiff in advance of the trial to discuss the logistics, including availability of clipboards and pencils. The parties should agree in advance to the form of questionnaire to be used and should prepare sufficient copies and all other needed supplies. 21.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
