Hello,
How Nick got into the jury pool is answered by Mr. Lamb after Rankin Fitch asks, "Mr. Lamb, how did this confidence man crash my jury pool?" (@0:52:57) Lamb reckons that Nick hacked his way into the municipal database -- weak protocols. It's later shown that Nick (or rather, Jeff Kerr) hacked voter databases in various cities over time to register his various aliases to make those aliases eligible (as resident), then hacked the voter roles to add those names & residences to the various jury lists of interest. Until Wood v. Vicksburg Firearms, he was unsuccessful actually getting into a trial for various reasons. In Wood v. Vicksburg Firearms he finally was successful.
Nick did plan to be a candidate in this particular trial, as he had in previous gun trials. The difference this time is that he survived the culling process, preemptory challenge for example, that he could not control. Presumably, he learned how to get through, for example, by his Madden Football Challenge ploy.
I hope I've answered your question about this outstanding film.
