Diameter two properties in James spaces

We study the diameter two properties in the spaces $JH$, $JT_\infty$ and $JH_\infty$. We show that the topological dual space of the previous Banach spaces fails every diameter two property. However, we prove that $JH$ and $JH_{\infty}$ satisfy the strong diameter two property, and so the dual norm of these spaces is octahedral. Also we find a closed hyperplane $M$ of $JH_\infty$ whose topological dual space enjoys the $w^*$-strong diameter two property and also $M$ and $M^*$ have an octahedral norm.
