Etymology
Romanian took "juriu" from French "jury," which English had earlier taken from Old French "juree," a sworn inquiry. That word traces to Latin "iurare," to swear an oath, itself built on "ius," law or right. Romania has no jury-trial system in its courts, so the word settled into a narrower sense: the panel that judges a contest, an exam, or a show.
