Joseph, maybe the person should first ask his rav if there is a halachic problem. Even if both parties are Jewish there might not be as the jury generally acts as an arbitration panel. It might even be an opportunity for a kiddush Hashem as a knowledgeable person could bring in Talmudic principles such as ??? ??? ???? ???? ???? ??? ????. BTW, if a person has semicha he probably can get a clergy exemption.
