OK, to our good Dr. Brin....this is a great question. Ditto Jurors? Ditto Lawyers? Ditto Judges? Does the original need to be sworn in before the ditto can be used? And is there a minimum "color" standard? Would a sequestered jury consist of daily dittoes while the real has to be locked up in the hotel? (With the pool, bar, billiards, etc.) If a ditto breaks down early, would it be considered a trial by slury? (That's another chapter pun header.)
