I don't know how the system works in the states, but in general, I'd say that you should do your duty as a citizen. Take it serious and ensure that the defendant gets a fair trial as best you can.

Originally posted by ddangerous View PostI got summoned once and showed up in shorts and a t-shirt. Out of about 30 people, I was the only one in casual clothes.

Bringer, just sit there like a total mong, have some nervous ticks and twitches, talk at 100mph and fidget non stop. Make them realise if you are picked you are going to be the show in the court case with everyones eyes on you.
Or you could just wear flip flops and shorts or give some of the other answers, either way, fcuk jury service unless your job sucks?

As a juror in my county, you EARN 5 bucks a day for the first 3 days.
If it goes beyond that then you start making the big bucks, a whopping 40 bucks a day.
I don't appreciate taking advantage of the system like that so when it was my turn to be interviewed by the lawyer representing a black dude, I politely cut him off by telling him...
"Let me start off by saying my beloved great grandpa was a founding member of the KKK..."
I was back home soon thereafter.

Just say "Man if the cops got em, they's guilty. Hell cops got me five times. I's guilty every damn one!"
The jive-talk is important.

But seriously, I've been summoned 4 times already. If either lawyer senses you DON'T want to be there, they will reject you. Simple as that.
