Screw THAT!!! I'm not missing this damn trip, not for anything. Those lousy bastards will be sorry they picked my fat arse to serve jury duty

sons a bitches:mad:

HEY RICK!!!! How many days did you serve?

[goodtimes]

Dude, jury duty is so easy to get out of. They tried to seat me on 2 juries last time I went. The first was for a carjacking/kidnapping/attempted murder trail....the defense team booted me off the jury when they found out my dad was kidnapped at gunpoint when I was 12 years old. The next jury they tried to seat me on was a murder trial that was expected to last 2 weeks. The defense team booted me when they found out I was starting school in 2 weeks, they thought that if the trail went longer than expected, I would do whatever I had to do in order to end the trail so I could get to school.

Its changed. Its said specifically that being a student is not a valid excuse

They changed alot last year (or was it the year before). They will get at least one day out of you. Even judges can't get out of it now.

Chris, when you go in, ask them for a postponement for 2 weeks. Several people had legitamate reasons for needing one last time I went (vacation qualifies--remember, you are not trying to get out of it, just more it to a better time), they are more flexible if you appear to be trying to make it work rather than getting out of it all together. Just be honest with them, tell them you are going to be out of town on vacation, and it is too late to ask the rest of the group to postpone the trip. Add that you'll be happy to come in and serve at a later time (suggest a reasonable time frame). Of course, you should be polite and not tell them that they all suck balls when you first talk to them (no matter how you really feel ).

If all else fails, make it seem like you would be a bad choice to sit on the jury. That is how I got out of it last time. Just don't lie to them.

edit--As I recall, being a student IS a valid excuse, if school is in session during the time you are supposed to serve. So unless you are going to summer school, then that won't help you.

Why do I get the feeling that you say a prayer everynight, thanking God (insert your personal preference here) that there isn't a draft anymore. LOL I can just see you in cammies now, with a big old wet spot on your ass from sweating LOL J/K

Love ya man! Good luck with the jury duty thing.

Actually, I dont. Serving my country and serving jury duty cant really be compared, IMO. If there was a draft, and I got called to duty, I would serve my county.

And the wet spot isnt from sweat . . . depends
