Jury duty = COMPLETE!!!
| Lesson: Jury selection is about throwing out anyone that is outside of predictable norms. Talk too much, too little, excited to be there... |
|
| Part of an "objection!"... "Sustained" sequence from the prosecutor to the defense attorney. "The defense can't argue with the jury" :-) |
|
| Tell the defense that if their case against overwhelming evidence is "innocent because of human nature" then they will lose. |
|
| Excused from my jury pool. Now I go back into the lottery for the rest of the day. |
|
| got called |
|
| Hoping lawyers decided to settle in all this time they had after they saw the jury pool. |
|
| Found out I'm going to a district court case... not sure what difference that makes. |
|
| @fallenrogue True. If I were a lawyer I'd google jurors. Not sure if they allow that or if it helps/hurts me... prob depends on the case. |
|
| @jaymed :-) |
|
| I'm hoping my handwriting screams unstable. |
|
| Before they see me the lawyers get to judge me by my handwriting, job title, years of education, full name, and if I know how to drive. |
|
| 6 rather |
|
| They need 12 of 18 of us. So 5 will be excused. But the odds of my release from civil duty today just went down big time. |
|
| Booooooooooooo. I'm Juror #7. |
|
| More number calling... |
|
| Safe again! Back to the waiting. |
|
| Numbers being called... no whami, no whami, no... |
|
| They know they will only need 20-40 more, but had all 120 remaining potentials come back today to be in the lottery. |
|
| Now checked in for day 2 of waiting to be selected for jury duty. Terrible spending of tax payer dollars... |
