Un jury complet («full jury») est normalement formé de douze jurés. [...] Ce nombre varie selon les régimes de droit et l'importance des affaires dont il faut connaître. Par exemple, le jury civil est formé dans plusieurs ressorts de six jurés seulement. Au Nouveau-Brunswick, le jury siégeant dans le cadre d'une instance civile se compose de sept personnes. 1, record 1, French, - jury%20complet
