Judicial System

We are now going to take a look at the United States Judicial system, more commonly known as the courts.  You have two different games to play to learn a little bit about the courts.

First, play "We the Jury" to get an idea of what it is like to serve on a jury.  At some point in your life, all of you will receive a jury summons, so prepare yourself.

Second, if you have time, play through a game of "Supreme Decision".  For this game you will need headphones or speakers to listen to what the people are talking about.
