Answer 1

Hello. You forgot to show the image the question is referring to, the image is attached.

You forgot to say that the image the question refers to is a jury summons.

Answer:

This question is addressed in the Alternating and Direct question

C. To protect the constitutional right to be tried by one's peers

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above assumes the Alternating and Direct pattern that is used in questions that need a specific and direct answer that is provided through alternatives.

The document to which the question refers is a jury summons. Every American citizen who receives this subpoena is required by law to attend a trial and participate in the jury. This obligation reflects the fulfillment of a right that every citizen has and that must be respected, regardless of the crime that the citizen has committed. That right is to be judged by your peers.
