    Why do defendants even need to be there for jury selection? Isn’t it just lawyers fighting each other over who gets to see the case?

      Mostly just to make sure the lawyers don’t completely fuck up and so the defendant can go “Wait I know that guy don’t let him on the jury”

      Not really needed here
