In the beginning of a criminal trial, 14 jurors are chosen. At the end of the trial, 2 of those are excused so you can have 12 jurors. Only 12 can sit and deliberate to come to a verdict. The two are excused but are on call just in case one of the 12 that are deliberating can no longer deliberate (that is, get sick or something like that). When this happens, one or both of the excused jurors are call in to deliberate with the other jurors. Also when this happens, once a new juror is added to the group, the whole group is instructed to start deliberating from the beginning all over again.
