The number of jurors for each case will be selected by lottery by the defendant.

This reform reduced the arbitrariness of judge's judgment by increasing the number of jurors and the number of jury cases, and eliminated the disadvantages of the past. All powers are restrained and weakened in order to combat some judicial abuses at the grassroots level. In November, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection announced the new disciplinary regulations for party members, which stipulated hundreds of behavioral details, from ticket reimbursement to the number of tables at family wedding banquets, and the identity of guests.[10]
