Done about 5 stints myself. Of the 5 only one was worthwhile. I was the foreman on a long and well publicized rape case. Turned out that the alleged perp was innocent and it was really an interesting experience.


Besides that, it got me out of work for 2' weeks

Are you paid by your employer during the hours of jury duty or at a set wage.

At 32, I've always wondered IF a jury case can put you in financial ruin.

Say an OJ type deal where you are sequestered for a 6 month period.

Anyone know?

Good luck Cie! :mj06:

On top of my salary, The company still had to pay me. My way of sticking it to the man :box2:

Depends on individual circumstances. It was in our contract that I must be paid.

Good to know.

[THE KOD]

its you civic duty to serve.

I guess I have gone 5 or 6 times.

But if you are on the other side and having a jury trial , believe me you would want yourself sitting
on that hard bench seat.

 

[MadJack]

Good to know.

Thanks Spang:mj06:

you can get out of it.

 

[Woodson]

you can get out of it.

Even better! :00hour

Had to do it once. Sat there all friggen day just be called last. When the questions got to me the judge asked if there was any reason to excuse me. I told him the prosecuting lawyer was my wife's cousin he looked up and said "Hey how's the family?" Excused on the spot but a long day!

I have been twice, I actually enjoyed it :shrug: except for the time wasted by attorneys, I was on a jury panel both times but did not get picked for the jury, one was a capital murder case and the chick was convicted, sentenced to life without parole and the other was a civil lawsuit against a corporation, it was a bs lawsuit

 

[BADTODABONE]

Federal jury duty pays...but you might get Whacked!
