jury duty

[ktheodos]

how many times you been? Experiences?

[samsamjj]

I am still waiting for my first jury duty summons. I would like to try it but I think it is different in every state and we will be moving soon. It would be fun to hear about others experiences.

I have been picked to go in for the interview.  Before the judge got to me, they had already 12 jurors picked.  I was glad, really didn't want to do it.

I've done it once. I was picked for one of the first trials of the day so I didn't have to sit around waiting for too long. I got some amazing food all day during breaks and for lunch. I was then told I was the alternate so I was able to leave before the rest of the jurors had to go decide the verdict. I spent 8 hours there and got pay $15

Zero times on jury duty, perhaps its becuase I dont vote very often.

I have done Jury duty once and called to do it 2 more time.  It makes for long days.

[mgint]

twice it wasn't so bad long as you don't get on a trial that lasts several weeks.

[tammypete]

I have never been called for jury duty!   I have always wanted to be called but haven't.  I use to think it was because I worked in the court system and for our local PD but I don't think thats the case!

THIS MAKES NY THIRD JURY DUTY SUMMONS. YOU LEARN A LOT BY GOING.

I have been called once and had to decline by letting them know that I was teaching school and could not be available on the dates they wanted me.

[albefish]

I was called to do it one time but was going on vacation so I was able to get out of doing it.

Do qualify more for jury duty if you vote often? I have always wanted to be picked, just for the experience. I know a handful of people who have been summoned numerous times.

[vickysue]

In our state they don't go by your voting record it is your drivers lic. I have summoned 5 times in my life and only had to serve once. Its not too bad but can get awful boring sometimes.

[quietpal]

I've been summoned once, and my hubby has been summoned once, at different times. Neither one of us even had to go in as we were not needed. I was so glad!

Have not served on jury duty in 20+ years.

Received 2 notices  last year to serve but was excused as I was in the middle of multiple surgeries for a detached retina & then a cataract from the retina surgery.
