Not showing up for jury duty.
Have any of you not shown up to jury duty without being excused? What was the reason? What happened after not showing up?

1 - better than work
2 - if you get drafted shit gets intense 3 - if selected you get a signed certificate of completion |

i think my proudest moment was, during one of the many drafts, when they asked if anybody disagreed with the war on drugs. nobody raised their hand. i was like you've got to be kidding me and raised my hand. discussed the invisible boogeyman with my fellow townspeople for the next 20 minutes.

i'm telling you, having a pizza party in the judge's chambers after hours is one of the coolest feelings in life you will ever experience.

My friend alleges he never shows up and they don't do anything. I guess it depends how hard your district cracks down on no-shows. But the general consensus here is you dont have to show up and they wont do anything

I don't know, reprise. This is the first time I've gotten a letter telling me to report to jury duty. I got that letter over a month ago and I'm pretty sure I remember it was for September sometime. Then I totally forgot about it until I was watching the episode of 30 Rock where Liz was summoned back in Chicago and pretended to be a character from star wars to get out of it.
I don't really know where the letter is now, so I guess I'm going to call in the morning and see if they can tell me. I hope I don't get a fine or anything :/ I'll go if I haven't missed it. |

Honestly it's fucking awful that it is such an important aspect of our court system and yet compensation is dreadfully inadequate. The one time I did it the defendants plead so I was sent home. At the time I was working a shit job that was nearby so I would go and get stoned on the lunch breaks. Otherwise not only would it be a scheduling pain in the ass but you're also looking at a cut in pay, if you're hourly. Best way to get out of jury duty is to claim a prejudice opinion about something relevant. Of course, influencing your boss could be the easier route.

They just sent me a letter a few months later saying that because I'm a bad boy, I have to go again on a certain date or they may spank me.
