When we lived in a small county seat town of 25,000, the jury pool was fairly small. I was called at least every four years. The judge had the sheriff's deputies lined up, and if someone didn't answer roll call the first day, he sent a deputy to fetch them.

@buriedalive It was fun watching people try to make excuses. The judge was not amused.

If you live in California, they probably wouldn't give a shlt. I was summoned couple of years ago and I call, they never pick up the phone or call back. I showed up and the court room was never open case. Nobodywas there.

I try calling again and never. You probably don't have to deal with it in Cali since they don't give a damn...well it depends where you're at.

Fortunately I have a permanent release because of health issues. Only took a doctors note

@Gibbon Mind if I borrow that note

@buriedalive Sorry it was faxed directly to the jury clerk. I got the release the following day by email and and letter within a week. It was quite a relief

I used to get that all the time too. I have polarizing views on justice, though, so neither side ever wanted me there casting doubt around the whole process.

You need to dirty up your record.

Just run out into the street and punch someone in the face. They will never call you again.

@GuyWithOpinions Yeah I'll go to a bar and cause chaos
