CPL § 360.55

Article 310 — governing jury deliberation and verdict in a superior-court felony trial — applies to a jury trial of an information in local criminal court. ★

★ Exam hits:

• 6-juror trial jury (§ 360.10) — the key local-court contrast with a 12-person felony jury.
• 3 peremptory challenges per party (§ 360.30); joint defendants are one party (challenges not multiplied); 1 extra peremptory for alternates (§ 360.35).
• Challenge to the panel: defendant only, in writing before selection begins or it's waived (§ 360.15).
• Challenge for cause grounds (§ 360.25): bad qualifications, biased state of mind, relationship within the sixth degree, being a witness, or prior jury service on the same incident.
• Alternates: up to two, chosen right after the last juror is sworn (§ 360.35).
• Article 360 mostly borrows the felony rules — § 260.30 (order), § 270.15/270.20 (voir dire/challenges), § 270.35 (alternates), § 300.10 (charge), §§ 300.30/300.40 (submission), Article 310 (deliberation) — swapping "information" for "indictment."
• Every count not submitted to the jury is deemed dismissed (§ 360.50(7)).
