•   Advantages:
•   It promotes greater understanding of the evidence.
•   Jurors ask legally appropriate questions.
•   If counsel objects and the objection is sustained, the jury does not draw inappropriate inferences from unanswered questions.
•   Jurors do not become advocates.
•   Disadvantages:
•   Juror questions do not clearly help to get to the truth.
•   Juror questions do not increase the jurors’, judges’, or lawyers’ satisfaction with the trial and verdict.
