Answer: (A)

This question tests who fills the leadership role and who handles the secretarial duties in a grand jury. The court is responsible for appointing the foreman who leads the grand jury and an acting foreman to stand in as needed. The grand jury itself appoints its secretary to take minutes and manage records, keeping these functions within the jury’s control.
