Challenges for general disqualification may be taken on one or both of the following grounds, and for no other:

(a) A want of any of the qualifications prescribed by this code to render a person competent as a juror.

(b) The existence of any incapacity which satisfies the court that the challenged person is incapable of performing the duties of a juror in the particular action without prejudice to the substantial rights of the challenging party.

Notes

Limits challenges for general juror disqualification to two grounds: lacking a qualification required by the code for juror competence, or having an incapacity that satisfies the court the person cannot perform juror duties in the particular action without prejudicing the challenging party’s substantial rights. No other general-disqualification grounds are permitted.
