Well yesterday when I got home I opened up the mail and found a letter from the clerk of courts and sure enough it was a letter to me saying that I have to report for Jury Duty at 8:45am on Oct 10 at the Brookings Court House. My current term is from 10/1/07 through 12/31/2007.
When they ask me all the questions during my interview I am really going to fib and tell them the things that they do not want to hear so then they can say, "oh well I guess you can go". I bet it really does not happen that way. I can not believe this has happened to me!

AH! I just got one in the mail for jury duty in Jacksonville. I get out of it since I moved. See, it pays to stay on the go! ;)
Is this the trial of the kid who killed his dad? If they ask you if you could ever give the death penalty, just say no. You'll be out for sure.
I could also tell them I know the story and have seen the 2 boys before because I have....then I know I would get off. I really hope that it is not that big of a case. I wouldn't want to known as the jury who gave the kids both a life sentence.
Ok, how come people who don't want jury duty...get it. And people who want jury duty (that would be ME!) don't get it?!?!
It's so not fair!
Hey I will make sure that I tell them that you would more then gladly take my place!
The chances you'll be selected are probably slim. I know NYC is different from Brookings, but when I got a jury summons there I basically sat around for a few hours until they told us to go home. Bring a book to read!
