Why do I have to answer personal questions before I'm chosen for jury duty?
Often when your called for jury duty there going to ask you a lot of personal questions that you might not want to answer. Especially in front of other people who you do, or do not know. And actually sometimes you can ask to answer those in front of the Judge. You can write a note and say I would like to answer those in chambers with the Judge and the attorneys not in. But they ask you personal questions for a reason. He may have hit someone we don't know. So they want to make sure that you have no prejudices, and they will ask you a variety questions obviously depending on the kind of case it is to see if they think you can be a fair juror.
