Not my favorite thing!
I just went 2 months ago and didn't get picked. I guess that is why I am back again tomorrow. I never get picked, defense attorneys do not like my looks. I never got picked in Maryland although I got called about every 4 years.
My wife on the other hand must look like a softie as she always gets picked. The last 2 trials she was on were 8 day affairs. At least she gets interesting cases, one a cop charged with murder, the other a druggie who shot his grandmother for her coin collection.
Death, Taxes, and Jury Duty.

Jack,I did my time finally. Took several near misses before they finally picked me. [ September 05, 2005, 09:40 PM: Message edited by: Jay Nistetter ]

I was in a lawsuit Jury-Pool. The [lawyer's] were "weeding us" out. One lawyer asked, "Do any of you, have trouble with the word "Expert"?
I was sent on my way . [ September 06, 2005, 04:18 AM: Message edited by: 2dogs ]
