JURY QUESTIONNAIRE

To: Prospective Jurors

Ladies and Gentlemen, these are civil cases. Plaintiffs are homeowners who claim to have suffered property damage caused by Chinese-manufactured drywall. The defendant Interior

Exterior Building Supply (INEX) was the importer and distributor of the Chinese-manufactured drywall installed in plaintiffs’ homes. The defendant North River Insurance Company, Inc. is an insurer of INEX.

The parties agree that the installed in plaintiffs’ homes emits sulfur gases which can cause damage to certain components in a home, such as HVAC units, refrigerators, electrical systems, plumbing systems, and other household items. They also agree that the Chinese drywall installed in the homes of all Plaintiffs was not fit for its ordinary or intended purpose, and none of the Plaintiffs would have purchased the Chinese drywall had they known about the defective nature of the Chinese drywall at the time it was purchased. Plaintiffs claim that the defendant INEX is liable for the damages resulting from this drywall. Defendants deny that INEX is liable.

The parties have a right to have this case tried by a qualified, fair, and impartial jury. A qualified and impartial jury is one that is responsible and capable and that will, without fear, favor, bias, prejudice, passion, or sympathy, hear and decide the issues to be tried objectively, and one that will render its verdict based solely on the evidence presented at this trial and the law applicable to the case as given to the jury by the Court.
