jury sequestration

**Jury Sequestration** refers to the legal practice of isolating jurors from the public and outside influences during a trial. This is done to ensure that jurors remain impartial and are not exposed to media coverage, public opinion, or other external information that could affect their judgment. Sequestration typically involves housing jurors in a secure location and limiting their contact with family, friends, and the outside world until the trial concludes and a verdict is reached.
