what are you talking about, interview 1000 jurors if need be. You have a pool brought in by the court of around 100 jurors, and of those 100 an initial number are drawn for the case on the docket. Then during the jury selection process I think each side gets to dismiss up to 3 of those that were selected, and when you have used your 3 you are stuck with the jury that is left. And they arent asked before hand if they understand IP or not. Same with DNA, most jurors didnt have a clue what its about, and thats why there are expert witness' to explain it to them.

The legal team dont have the opprotunity to remove someone that has determined guilt or innocence once the jury is set, so your arguement there dont hold water either.

By the way have you ever served jury duty? You arent ruled out because you were involved in a similiar situation yourself. If one of the attorneys wants you off the jury because of that reason he has to use one of his 3 deletions, to accomplish that.

Yes in some budoir processes they might get into some details as to the extent of your knowledge pertaining to the case, but lack of technical knowledge does not exclude you from the pool automatically.
