I've only had one, on an assault trial. I never want to be on trial here. General opinion in this county is either that anyone who has been arrested is guilty, or that the legal system is the enemy. Guess which ones actually show up for duty.

Imagine a 20 year old me heatedly telling 11 people my parents' age what burden of proof means.

Well, I'm trying to be excused from jury duty because I'm the only one working since the company my wife worked for went out of business. I just think that it's crazy...3 summons in 4 years...and that's crazy, imho.

That's quite a run, Bob. :)

I have been chosen once. I went to the court house, sat there for a day and didn't get called for anything. :)

Last time I was sent a summons, I was excused on account of the fact that I lived eight thousand miles from the courthouse.

Jury duty in Tulsa, OK pays $20 per day, 37.5 cents per mile [i live 18 miles from downtown Tulsa], and actual parking expense, not to exceed $1.50 per day but free parking is provided in designated parking garage [5 minute walk each direction to and from the courthouse].

I'll be rolling in the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I happen to have an idiot cousin who will be going up for trial right around that time in Tulsa...perhaps me mentioning that fact will get you off the jury - although he needs to be locked up for a while. He was the "notorious" "car wash shooter." Freaking moron...

Well, I was excused from jury duty, BUT, I've been rescheduled for sometime in September. If my wife is still unemployed, I have to submit paperwork to support my wanting to be excused then.

I thought jury duty was an honor, but if I'm being FORCED, then it's no longer an honor to serve. Sheech.
