Bad news.. you would have to take it with you on first day of selection. Speaking from experience not from out my ass. |

If that doesn't work, take the route I did, I really did this, Tell them you don't want to be there and in protest you are going to find this person innocent no matter what the evidence shows. Prosecutor will say byebye now, guaranteed. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1299115 ![]() 07/25/2014 08:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This BS really pisses me off. I came home today to find a jury duty summons waiting for me, low and behold, the mofos scheduled me the same week as my vacation out of state. There is a vast clusterfuck conspiracy going on here. Any suggestions? Thanks for letting me rant, but I haven't had a vacation in ages and then this happens. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 57366096 I feel you're pain. I was married for 34 years and my wife died of cancer in 2010. One week after she died I got a jury duty summons. I called and they could care less. I had to go. As far as it being a conspiracy, well I don't know. It sure struck me as suspicious because of the timing of it. They probably knew I frequented GLP and was a conspiracy theorist. Just imagine if you were on trial for you're life and I was picked to be a juror in you're trial. I can tell you for a fact that mentally I was in no condition to judge anything. My whole world had collasped and I did not care about anything at the time. It was unfair to me and more unfair to any potential person on trial I might have had to be a juror in their case. . |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 60435953 ![]() 07/25/2014 08:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I just ignore them until they're sent certified mail or delivered by a process server. They can't prove that you received it. Quoting: Getz Yup. What this guy said. Crumple it up and toss. No one can prove you got it unless someone knocks on your door and hands it to you. In that case just dont answer the door. Also say it is against your religion/belief to judge and if they continue say they are discriminating against your beliefs *whatever they are, do research*. Or act very biased! Or declare you are a caretaker for someone ill. Do research. |

Or write on it and ask if you can discuss "jury Nullification" with the other jurors... Those 3 little hacks will get you off the "list" for awhile, maybe for good. ._. |

They will probably let you reschedule "It's a friendly friendly world" (Andy Kaufman) Calm seas do not a sailor make, Nor easy horses, a horseman. And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower and when He could be certain only drowning men could see Him- Leonard Cohen |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 57366096 tell them u never got the letter if they confront you later. i got permanently excused from jury duty because i have "anxiety problems", which is really lack of motivation to be around stupid fuckin people. if u have any medical record that would suggest that u cannot be there, send it to them. |

wk User ID: 40337870 ![]() 08/14/2014 10:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | REally call the court and talk to them. They will usually postpone it if you have a legit reason. Tell them you already have made the plans and bought the tickets or whatever you have done. You might have to do it later, but there is no good reason to have your vacation messed up. violet |

The secretary or whoever gave those names to a deputy. Quoting: Shadow and Flame I was very surprised, and very glad that I showed up. Oh I'm so fucking scared!! What the fuck are the deputies going to do??!!! The government and judicial system are so fucking corrupt they all go and fuck each other!!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 23153134 ![]() 08/14/2014 10:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Chances are you will be dismissed on the first day. If not, you will be called for jury selection.. and when this happens the judge will ask you if you will be willing to "follow his/her instructions" --at this point you will raise your hand and say... "No I cannot follow your instructions, I will retain the right to judge both the law and the facts concerning this case." Please refer to the FIJA website (Fully Informed Jury Association) and look up the facts behind "jury nullification." When you state this before the judge you will have multiple supreme decisions on your side... know them and be able to quote them to the judge. The judge will shit their pants knowing that you now know about "jury nullification" and then dismiss you right then and there. Works all the time, guaranteed. |
