Aj 40

TI 1 IS You be the judge and decide whether the following facts require you to grant or deny a defendant's request for a peremptory challenge. A black defendant has excluded six white jurors. The prosecution challenges the defendant's strike of a seventh white juror. The defense explains that its last strike was because the juror's hairstyle and glasses suggested he was a conservative. See U.S. v. Blotcher, 142 F.3d 728 (4th Cir. 1998)
