ST. LOUIS, MO. (AP) -- Members of a delegation of judges and court staff from Korea are in St. Louis this week to learn about America's jury system.

Last year, the Korean government approved the use of jury trials.

The National Center for State Courts is hosting the Korean delegation's visit to St. Louis courts on Thursday and Friday.

They will observe how state courts implement jury trials and how the courts and dockets are managed.
