Question

Why 5men & 6 woimen in diana jury? should be 12 in jury. is it valid?

Answer 1

It doesn't matter how many are elected to go on the jury, it is just a public show to quieten the few people who after all these years are still bleating on about it. it is history

Answer 2

An odd number, in this case 11 prevents a tie from occurring, thus reventing a hung jury.

Answer 3

As noted, it is a coroners jury.  The law is different with the number of jurors in criminal trials compared to the number needed in a coroners jury.

Answer 4

Coroner's jury is always 11 in England.

Answer 5

It does not matter, this is a coroners inquiry. The jury will not rule the Coroner will. He can disregard what the jury says if he wants.
