Juror Duty, UGHH I have been summoned Options

[soulshadow]

So has anyone ever been in Jury duty? I just got a letter this week saying that I have to appear in court as a Juror sometimes in the next month time frame for 3 months. Which will screw up my schedules since Im taking Summer classes and having to fix someone else car. Anyone know what to expect, wear, and bring?

If you go they'll ask you a bunch of questions, like have you ever been the victim of a crime, do you know anybody in law enforcement, do you feel you could be an impartial judge based on these things etc. I mentioned my father was in probation, I know 2 or 3 cops, family friend is a judge, grandfather was chief of police. I didn't get selected. But there was a retired cop whose been on several trials in the past and they selected him. There was also a lawyer who actually has a case pending in front of the very same judge - and they picked him. So it's really strange what these lawyers look at sometimes. You could just flat out lie that you can't be impartial based on something and they'll dismiss you.
