Art. 8. Appeals concerning the election of a juror shall be
lodged with the district court. The court examines the
qualifications of those elected even if no appeal is lodged.
Provisions of law relating to appeals against decisions of an
inferior court apply to appeals against decisions of a district
court on a matter under paragraph one. There is no right of
appeal against the decision of the court of appeal.
If an appeal is lodged, the election nevertheless remains valid
unless the court rules otherwise.
Art. 9. The names of persons appointed to serve as jurors shall
be entered on a list of jurors. Each group shall be entered
separately on this list.
Art. 10. In a case which is to be tried by a jury, the court shall
present the list of jurors and consider whether there are grounds
for disqualifying any person on the list. Provisions of law
relating to the disqualification of judges apply to the
disqualification of jurors.
The jury is empanelled thereafter from among the
undisqualified jurors in such a way that each party is permitted
to exclude three jurors in the first group and one in the second,
and the court then selects by lot a sufficient number of deputies
from among the remaining jurors to leave six in the first group
and three in the second.
In the case of a jury in the Stockholm county administrative
district, each party is permitted to exclude five jurors in the first
group and two in the second.
Art. 11. If there are several parties on one side, only one of
whom wishes to exercise his or her right to exclude jurors, an
exclusion made by that party is deemed to be an exclusion
made also by the other parties. If co-parties wish to exclude
different jurors, and are unable to reach agreement, the court
makes the exclusion by lot.
Art. 12. No person may avoid jury service without legal cause.
If the number of members required in a group cannot be made
up because of disqualification or legal excuse, the court
nominates three qualified group members for each juror
required. Each party is permitted to exclude one of the persons
so nominated. No one may be nominated as a juror who has
already been excluded in the same proceedings.
