Cool, I'll have to check that out. One you must read is: Hitler's father was circumcised. Was the Holocaust a Zionist conspiracy?. If after reading that you aren't a Ron Paul supporter than I'm not sure I can maintain contact with you.

I had to go once for the selection process but the trial was called off at the last minute. I would have gone to, because it a duty. Also where I'm at they will actually go after people that try to skip it and make them serve community service as a punishment.

I've already read that. If you liked that, you should really check out Aufbruch in die Neue Welt, by Daniela Mattes . If you read that and still think Margaret Thatcher was a hero, you're a poofster.

I did work as a lay jdge in court here in Germany.
Wasn't drafted, but went ahead and offered to do it. I felt it is my duty as a citizen profitting from the country's services to give back.
The cases were interesting, too.
One was a middle-aged small drug pusher, who was cought the fourth time on several small offenses. That time we decided he had to do jail time.
Another was a mental guy who was dangerous when he got into his dark moods. We had a psychiatrist who gave us his opinion about if the guy was a case for a mental institute or prison.
We decided he has do be in the institute, but a closed one.
My advice:
If you are thankful that your country offers a police force, fire-fighters, etc., you should do jury duty

My wife doesn't know I'm a perv!
i was called a year or two ago. sat in the waiting room with about 50 other people. they handed out sheets of paper and asked each person to give their info, and a reason (a real one) for not being able to serve. told em i was a student and if i was on the jury id miss most of my semester (they said it was gonna be a 2+ month long trial. more than likely murder if i had to guess). they called me up, and bounced me out

I moved back to Vegas in April last year. The very next week I got a notice saying I'd been selected for jury duty in Allentown, PA. I called the court clerk and advised them I wouldn't be flying back to PA to serve. They asked me to mail back the summons with a Vegas postmark. Et voila.

In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
I've only been called on once, I would kind of like to do it again.

in some countys you can not
In mine they send a summons by reg mail- just pretend you did not get it and destroy and get rid of it-you can always say you not get it
If you had it del by person or return receipt requested they know you got it- and trouble if not go
In my county driving is a priviledge and if they send one and you ignore it when you go to renew your license a few years later they got you them and they inform you to do your civic duty first they have you in person with an id and if you want to have the driving priviledge do the jury shit
You can ignore snail mail I figure as long as they do not know for sure you got the letter- some one could have stolen your mail
but have ways to losoo you eventually
I know you do not want to do it BUT
you can never complain about court decisions again from jurors who did serve or attempt to
When I did go last time I did not shower and I stunk like hell and I figured they wanted me on jury stinking so deal with my odor other wise let me go home
I also peed all over ALL and I do mean all toilets that day- in protest
I was preparing to act crazy and goofy and prejudiced against some side of the case- At least the lawyer did not waste a vote to eliminate a juror
if both laywers agree to dismiss its not a wasted dismissal vote
The civil case settled while at lunch on second day of juror selection and we were all dismissed.

If New Jersey issued bench warrants for everyone that failed to appear for a jury summons they'd have to employ a special jury division to round them all up.

Please don't get pulled over. Also I hope that you don't need to renew your driver's license then. Like most states, courts in California do issue bench warrants, leading to your licence becoming suspended. And if that happens, the cops will arrest you. You'll need a lawyer to get this all cleared up. Start thinking about $500.00 to a $1,000.00 as that is what it will cost you. Attorneys will have two issues to clear up. The suspended license and the bench warrant for failure to appear for jury duty.
