jury boxes
Where jurors sit
A jury box is the enclosed area in a courtroom where jurors sit during a trial.
Typically positioned to give jurors a clear view of the witness stand, judge's bench, and counsel tables, the jury box holds twelve seats in traditional criminal trials, though smaller panels are used in some civil cases.
The defendant avoided looking toward the jury box during testimony.
