The court has the honor to have me as a juror soon.

Anyone have any good stories of jury duty you care to share? I have done it once before. Verdict was guilty. The fool had some public defender. Shoplifting yet there was clear video evidence of the crime. Voir Dire is about as pointless as can be. Just be neutral on every question and they like you.

I know most try to get out of it, I welcome it.

Hahaha. I think I was asked if I watch "Law and Order" or something like that. I really didn't even though I think it/was a popular show.

Got the letter. Went down to sit in a room for most of the day. Never got called.

Most memorable thing about it was in the beginning after everyone had submitted identification and Jury duty call number, this lady announces real loud some names and asked if they were present. Soon after when no one said anything, she gave the list to this law enforcement guy and told him to issue warrants.

They mean business about showing up for these things even if you never get called in for jury duty questioning.

I am going to have to haggle on the price with the court. My time is worth more than $15. That will not even cover my appearance fee. I may just wear this

Just go on one of your racist rants and I'm sure you will be home in no time...

You have no idea what racism even is....Do i need to post statistics again or are those to complicated for you.

My detractors can never post anything intelligent to "put me in my place"

I get called almost every year for the last 10 years, but its always the same. Sit there most of the day and end up going home around 3 or 4. Never made it into the court room yet

I was selected once and while in the jury box and being questioned by the prosecutor prior to the trial, I told her that I didn't think that the defendent would receive proper council being represented by the public defender. After the break, I was told I was dismissed. I happily walked out the door.
