Record number of jurors – How (almost) anyone can become a judge one day

Date:

Are you between 25 and 65 years old, Austrian, physically and mentally fit, do you speak the official German language and is your police statement in order? Then you meet all the requirements not only to complain about court decisions, but also to actively help shape the administration of justice.

Many court decisions are shocking. And some outsiders think they know a much fairer punishment. It is usually not just professional judges who judge – more and more court cases require lay judges who either decide independently on the guilt or innocence of a defendant as jury or pass judgment together with professional judges as jurors.
