to the Jurors Is either made to the Array or to the Polls To the Array is when the whole number is excepted against as partially empanelled To or by the Poll is when some one or more are excepted against as not indifferrnt Challenge to the Jurors is also divided into Challenge Principal and Challenge per Cause i. Upon Cause or Reason Challenge Principal otherwise called Peremptory is that which the Law allows without cause alleaged or further examination Lamb. Eiren. lib. 4. cap. 14. As a prisoner at the Bar arraigned upon Felony may peremptorily Challenge 20 one after another of the Jury empanelled upon him alleaging no cause but his own dislike and they shall be still put off and new taken in their places But in case of High Treason no Challenge Peremptory is allowed Anno 33 Hen. 8. cap. 23. Yet there seems to be a difference between Challenge Principal and Challenge Peremptory this being used onely in matters criminal and barely without cause alleaged more then the prisoners own fancy Stams Pl. Cor. fol. 124. That in civil actions for the most part and with assigning some such cause of Exception as being found true the Law allows For example if either party alleage That one of the Jurors is the Son Brother Cosin or Tenant to the other or married his Daughter this Exception is good if true without further examination of the parties credit How far this Challenge upon Kinred extends see in Plowden Casu Vernon fol. 425. Also in the Plea of the Death of a Man and in every Real Action and in every Action Personal where the Debt or Damages amount to forty Marks it is a good Challenge to any Juror that he cannot dispend 40● per annum of Freehold Anno 11 Hen. 7. cap. 21. The ground of this Challenge you may see in Fleta lib. 4. cap. 8. Challenge upon Reason or Cause is when the party does alleage some such Exception against one or more of the Jurors as is not forthwith sufficient upon acknowledgment of the truth of it but rather arbitrable and considerable by the rest of the Jurors as if the Son of the Juror have married the Daughter of the adverse party Kitchin fol. 92. where you may read what Challenges are commonly accounted Principal and what not See the New Book of Entries on this word Challenge which was anciently Latined by Calumnia as appears by Bracton lib. 3. tract 2. cap. 18.
