The entire jury thing sucks... How do they expect to get a good juror by threatening them with a fine and/or jail time for not serving? :shakehead:

I went for one of these a year or so ago....had to take a day off work, sat in a uncomfortable room for 8 hours, was told to go home...never got to a courtroom for jury selection. A lot of waiting and doing nothing...

One of the rare times I would have rather of been working.

Exactly.

My past experiences have been the same.

Oddly, the government doesn't force people to vote for their officials, yet they strong-arm people to serve on a jury... Makes no sense at all. :shakehead:

I wont argue that. There would be better judgements on the stands. :victory:

For another perspective, if you had to go to court would you want your fate to be determined by jury of those who couldn't figure out a way out of jury duty?
