J. E. B. v. Alabama ex rel. T. B. 511 U.S. 127 (1994) was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that making peremptory challenges based solely on a prospective juror’s sex is unconstitutional. J.E.B. extended the court’s existing precedent in Batson v. Kentucky (1986) which found race-based peremptory challenges in criminal trials unconstitutional and Edmonson v. Leesville Concrete Company (1991) which extended that principle to civil trials.
