During a jury trial, which carrier is worn?

• A. Outer carrier
• B. Inner carrier
• C. No carrier
• D. Both inner and outer

Answer: (B)

The practice tested is how body armor is worn in a courtroom setting. In a jury trial, you wear the vest in its inner carrier, meaning the protective panels go under your clothing and stay concealed. This provides protection while keeping a professional, non-distracting appearance for jurors and participants. An outer carrier would be visible on the outside of clothing and could snag on chairs or give an intimidating impression, which isn’t appropriate in court. Wearing no carrier leaves you unprotected, and wearing both inner and outer adds unnecessary bulk. So the correct approach is to wear the inner carrier.
