JENNR8R 0 #6 June 14, 2007 Quote I have never been called to jury duty, despite having been a registered voter for quite some time now. I've gotten as far as being called to the courthouse one day, but I wasn't chosen. I've always wanted to be on a jury.

wildfan75 1 #10 June 14, 2007 I was called for jury duty once. I even got on a civil case. Some guy broke his ankle on a city bus and was sueing for $1.5 million. Hard to say what happened because I couldn't tell which one of his three stories was true, the one at his deposision, the one he told on examination, or the one he told on cross-examination. Needless to say he didn't get a penny (but he did get a promotion at work because of his injury so it wasn't a complete loss for him). Have fun!

normiss 622 #15 June 14, 2007 suddenly the phrase "jury of your peers" scares the fuck outta me... were I ever to need a truly impartial jury, I'm thinking it's going to be full of losers who couldn't find a way out of their public service duty. just another in the myriad of reasons our legal system is so fucked. I would elect for a trial by judge I think...less emotion, more letter of the law. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoeyRamone 0 #17 June 14, 2007 I sat on a federal case last year in Chicago for 4 months yes 4 dam months. I also live 60 miles west of Chicago so I got to hop the 6:05 train to get in at 7:30 coffee then to jury duty. Get home at 7:00 at night and do it all over again. GUILTY the doctor got 12 years and an 18 million dollar fine. He tried to sell a sterilizer for surgical equipment with no FDA approval. 8 people went blind.

I would elect for a trial by judge I think...less emotion, more letter of the law. Guess I'm a huge loser then. I've been called three times, served three times. And I'm damn glad I was called for the last one, because the decision may well have gone another way, and in my heart, I know the right verdict was reached.

Squeak 17 #19 June 15, 2007 I sat as a juror for a couple of weeks on a trial about corporate espionage and abduction. it sounds way more interesting that it really was. But I'm glad i was there, the interesting part was the 3 day deliberation, finding out how people interpret what they see and hear. on occassion we would have as many as 5 versions of the same evidence You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

ukdrop 0 #20 June 15, 2007 Quote ... the interesting part was the 3 day deliberation, finding out how people interpret what they see and hear. on occassion we would have as many as 5 versions of the same evidence Yes very interesting. When I sat on Jury, one of my fellow members logic was: "He has to be guilty otherwise the police would not have wasted there time bringing the case to court" When i did my jury service, 2 days before I was due to start I broke both my wrists while racing motorbikes. I turned up each day in court with both arms in casts and cos I didn't want to wear a double sling I had to sit there with my arms sticking up in the air. Every new case had a new judge and every one of them singled me out for amusing jibes, ranging from: "Yes you can put your hand down now that you have sworn in" to "Shouldn't you be in the dock and not in the jury box?" Piss taking judges. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
