I just received a jury summons in the mail....
I've never been summoned before. Any ideas on how to get out of it? I'm supposed to appear the morning of the 27th.

Send it back with a letter explaining you have been kidnapped by aliens and are currently out of the solar system.

Throw it away if you haven't responded to it yet. They cannot prove that you ever received it. A friend of mine kept throwing all of them away for years. Once a deputy showed up on his doorstep and personally delivered it to him. He never got in trouble.

You know, I thought of that. I just assumed that they'd send it again certified and I'd just be putting off the inevitable.

If you are mentally incapable, they wont allow you to do it.
So do what I said.
Or ring them up and talk about the voices in your head.

when they question you just ask if it is a death penalty case as you always wanted to send someone to death row, guilty or not. LOL

I love how people are so afraid of upsetting black people that they will not spell out the word bye bye, but they will spell out wetbacks, kikes & crackers.

Racism is racism, no matter which race it's pointed at. Sorry to hijack, just had to get that point across.

Just go.

You'll know what to say to get out of it when you get there.

At my last call, it was a case of gun theft. I didn't have time either and was scheduled for a two week out of town trip. The defense was asking prospectives if they ever had a gun stolen.

My answer, of course, was yes.

Dismissed.

If you go and listen to the type of crime you are being summoned for tell them you have a close relative that was charged with the same thing or suffered from the same crime and you feel prejudice towards the issue.. that will take you off the list pretty quick..

if you didnt have to sign a receipt of receiving the letter, there is no way for them to prove that you even got it.

If they want to to show up that badly, they will send a deputy to deliver the summons.

That's probably what I'll end up doing. I'll make damn sure that I'm not picked. I just didn't want to mess with even showing up if I could avoid it.

Turn up in a tinfoil hat.
Zec 12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
Psa 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that forget God.
Jer 6:2 I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate [woman].
STOCK UP NOW. You should have at least 6 months worth of basics for every member of your household. Stay away from crowds when trouble starts, do not forget water storage, tobacco is worth more than gold or silver, and be kind to hungry children.

You've got company.
I'm slated for the 28th.
I googled " how to get out " and all that comes up are asshole answers like above.
I've made up my mind just to go.
It's no big deal.

Re: I just received a jury summons in the mail....
if it's any consolation... when I went for Travis County a while back, they let me go pretty quickly...

dress strange, or like a rock and roller... they will not seat you...

don't shave, and look a bit wild eyed and crazy and wear big sunglasses INDOORS...

if they ask, tell them your eyes are sensitive to light...

don't talk and don't smile...
