Jury Duty

Man am I unlucky. I hope and I wish for jury duty, and every time I get it, I can’t go! The first time I was on my mis­sion, and this time I’m mov­ing. Dang.

I like the lan­guage though: “…serve as a Petit Juror for the Court of the Mag­is­trate…”. Hehe.. petit juror. Makes me think of a bunch of lit­tle midget jurors.

    That’s too bad you missed out on jury duty…I got to do jury duty for the first time about 18 months ago and I totally loved the expe­ri­ence. I sat on a crim­i­nal trial that had to do with a gang shoot­ing. Crypts vs. bloods busi­ness. The best part was that I got to be “Madame Foreper­son”. I thought they should’ve just called me the “fore­man” but you know how des­per­ately CA wants to be polit­i­cally cor­rect these days. Move your vot­ing records as soon as you get a new address and that’ll put you back in the jury pool.

    I find myself on oppo­site sides of you. I can’t stand jury duty. The fact that we are forced to serve is a huge turn off. If it was such an honor which a good part of the court sys­tem feels it is, why are we forced? Why don’t they just ask for vol­un­teers? Maybe I’m just bad citizen!!
