A quick definition of tales-juror:

A tales-juror, also known as a talesman, is a person who is chosen from the audience in a court to serve as a juror when there are not enough jurors available. They are also sometimes called veniremembers.

A more thorough explanation:

A tales-juror is a person who is selected from among the bystanders in court to serve as a juror when the original jury panel has become deficient in number. This term is also known as talesman.

For example, if a trial requires 12 jurors but only 11 are available, a tales-juror may be selected from the bystanders to fill the missing spot.

The term "tales-juror" comes from the Latin phrase "nominis tales," which means "such persons."
