I have yet to receive jury duty either... kind of wish I would get summoned.

11/24/2010 7:55:07 PM

They'll never pick you.

11/24/2010 7:55:21 PM

yeah, if what they say is true (that they pick from drivers licenses and voter registrations), then i've had one entry in for 14 years and one for 16 years

i love amurrrica

^^ there's no reason why they wouldn't.

11/24/2010 7:58:01 PM

i've been selected 2 or 3 times now and i don't vote, so...

I got a letter one time, but I was in college at the time and it was for the middle of the week near the end of the semester (finals time) in my hometown, 5+ hours away. It was logistically almost impossible for me to make it happen, so I requested a waiver. It was granted.

I'd love to be on a jury now.

Sounds good douche-bag

given your enthusiasm for the position there's a good chance you're biased against one side, and counsel for that side will strike you during jury selection

I had jury duty for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Drove up to High Point, checked in, watched the video, sat there for 3 hours, and then was told to go home.

Easiest $12 I ever made in my life.

^^ Enthusiasm to fulfill your civic duty != prejudice for the prosecution or defense

11/24/2010 8:36:02 PM

doesn't equal

does arouse suspicion

and that's all they need at jury selection

11/24/2010 10:23:39 PM

i got a jury duty letter today. so pumped. not.

11/24/2010 10:25:34 PM

That reminds me, I have jury duty in January. I kept having to postpone because of school and was hoping they'd forget. They never did.

just try to sound like a racist, homophobic, fundamentalist, xenophobic creationist and you'll be the first stricken from the jury

"i wanted to seem racist enough to get out of it, but not hateful, so instead of saying 'i hate chinks,' i said, 'i love chinks'."
