Jury


 * Not to be confused with the Jurist System from Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney.

The Jury is a group of six people who overlook trials with the Judge. These trials take place in the Old Bailey court in the United Kingdom.

While many of them are not established characters, some of them have a very minor connection to the case and some of them inadvertently give Ryuunosuke Naruhodou an angle to go off.

They are also jurors who have been named and reasonably established.

Development
When creating the jury for the trial of Cosney Megundal. Takumi designed Juror No. 1 in the image of a certain character in the previous games. Juror No 2 was designed as a “genuine working maid”, an opposite to Joan Garrideb. It’s also an occupation that easily shows British culture at the time. Juror 3 was designed in freestyle with a rich punk style in mind. Juror No. 4's appearance is said to be a reincarnation of a certain character, according to Takumi. Juror No. 6 was drawn with a Western old woman’s unique plumpness at first, but since Takumi’s image seemed to be somewhat different, they redesigned her with her current look. For Sōseki Natsume's trials, Juror No. 2 was designed as a “The Victorian-era Lady”! Juror No. 3 was designed as an “absentminded youth”! Juror No. 5 was designed as a manual laborer. Juror No. 6 was made as a mysterious old man.

Trials
In Ryuunosuke Naruhodou's trials in the Great British Empire there consists of six jurors. They sit in front of the judge and are giving voters of fire to light the scale above the judge. If the chair behind turns black, the juror with fire their fire to the left black scale meaning "Guilty". If it's all white, that means "Innocent". Occasionally they will decide if the current defendant is guilty. If that happens then Ryuunosuke will have to examine the jurors and find which of their statements contradict the others. When he finds a contradiction, usually the jurors change their mind and say the defendant might be innocent. In addition, some jurors, even the unnamed one's, help out with the case itself.

Attempted revival

 * Main articles: Turnabout Succession and Jurist System

After noticing that a lack of evidence just isn't enough to receive a proper verdict, Ryuunosuke Naruhodou's descendant Phoenix Wright attempted to revive jury trials, through a concept known as the Jurist System. A test of this system was implemented in October 2026, in the trial of Vera Misham for the murder of her father. At least six jurors participated in this trial, and Misham was found not guilty by unanimous decision.

However, no known jury trials have occurred in the United States since this case.
