Very Childishness But Felt Good

You take it home with you. It haunts your dreams for months. I'd go to jail before I would do it again.

thank you for your service, but i certainly understand, i'd not want to go through that either.

O Boy! Maybe call you for duty anyway and put you on one LONG and NASTY case ?

A friend of mine had jury duty at the federal level. Traveled a long hour to Boston once a week for 1 1/2 years.

Even when I WANTED to be chose, I never was. I've been summoned once since we moved 3 years ago. I would like to serve on a jury.

I was called for federal duty once. And felt relieved that I was not chosen. My bosses (food service and transportation ) Where terrified I would be selected as they where always short handed on any given day and not sure they could cover my job when called to serve one or two times a week for one year!

I went to fed jury duty. Was one away from being chosen for a double murder, 2 defendants, gang violence. I was selected for a guy who tried to get a date with a 13 year old boy. Talked my way-out of it. But....no crime was committed -it was a sting. He was married, all over the news. But there was no real child. How do you send a guy to jail for that? Luckily I did not have to decide.

I could easily send a pediphile to his grave...

They keep hoping you'll remember to call the night before!

Hahahaha

I got summoned for the first time this year. My boss flipped out and sent a letter begging the court to excuse me, and they did.

I've been summoned soooo many times, like Mary, almost yearly. I have served on a jury, sat around at a bunch of them, and then one time I had to travel 2 hours for the summons and spend the night. They reimbursed me for the overnight and mileage. I liked sitting in various open court rooms listening to the cases (when on break or waiting waiting waiting).

we were told to stay either in the jury gathering room or in the assigned court room because suspects, attorneys, etc. were in the halls. i'm sure once we were dismissed from service we could have tried to get into court rooms, but the doors were usually closed and so i wouldn't want to open a door and get the "late to class look" from all the people in the room... probably would have to figure out how the schedule worked and then see when the rooms were opened and closed.
