I did county jury duty two years ago, served for a week. I loved the experience but a month? Wowza. Hopefully the chairs are comfy. I hated the hard, wooden chairs the mostThank you for serving! I know if I ever needed a jury, I would want a catlover
ACT? LOL, shouldn't be too hard!Originally Posted by KittKatt
EWWWW!!I don't envy you at all!You have my sympathies!
You could always act like you're a mentally insane crazy cat lady.Maybe they'll let you out of it!
Good luck!!

My bassoon professor once told me they don't want well-educated people on a jury.Originally Posted by katachtig
I get the notices but they never want me. Definitely would be an experience for you.

That is too funny! I cross stitch so I guess I could hope for a female defendant if I want to do it. I think it's sort of like being on call. You don't do it for the whole month, but they can call your name anytime that month.Originally Posted by Bonnie1965
I was chosen for the jury because I had something in common with the defendant - I cross-stitch and crochet. I was in college at the time but I don't think they cared about that.
LOL, that would happen to me too, being a Luchetta...Originally Posted by Spyral
I got Federal Jury Duty in Manhattan once. Turns out it was for mafia trials. My last name is Palermo. They excused me on day one..lol
My boss got called once, and it was an alleged child molestation case. My boss has 6 daughters...need I say more?Originally Posted by krazy kat2
I always thought jury duty would be interesting, given the right case. My luck it would be some silly trafic related thing.
No, it shouldn't - not for any of us!Originally Posted by kluchetta

Ummm, yes. I just called my daughter into the room to observe that I could touch 5 cats at once right now.Originally Posted by KittKatt

When they ask you for "proof" as to your mental state of mind, just direct them to TCS..

The case I served was a traffic insurance case. I was fascinated by how the law worked and all the ins and outs. Literally - jury in, jury out and back in again.Originally Posted by krazy kat2
