go naked?

I have just always served. Around 90 percent of the time I swear it is just a simple drug case that rarely lasts more than a day. Oddly I get dismissed with most drug cases though since it is well known around my city how involved I was in passing the medical marijuana laws which they equate to being soft on drugs. Not to mention I have personally met with almost all of the decent lawyers who take on drug cases so again that often gets me tossed.

Yet if your business would really have bad hardship if you would be gone for more than a day or two and you must get out of it. First just try to claim hardship and that often can work. Next if you do know a doctor they can write a note and get you out of jury duty for life. Then some easy excuses are ones like that you do not believe in the drug laws. That you personally believe in the old testament of an eye for an eye. You may also act like you REALLY REALLY want to serve on that jury, this one scares someone all the time. Then the never fail one is just saying that you recall seeing the defendant in a McDonald's awhile back talking about something real quiet like and he/she gave you the creeps.

Though like I said I just rather serve. It actually can be a very interesting process and the last time I did I was glad to be their or that dude would of gotten his third strike.

good point

down here they will cite you for contempt of court and they can issue a warrent for your arrest

im not going to deal with that

I have a unique idea. Rather than be like 90% of the selfish whiney ass bitches on GFY who don't appreciate their U.S. citizenship, and also assume that THEIR time is more valuable than everyone else's; why don't you show up and do your civic duty without complaining? There's a good chance you won't get picked as they always call in many more than are actually needed on any given day.

Just do it!

In big black magic market write... "I am a porngrapher".

Done.

Tell em your a UK citizen, works every time for me

Can I use that next time?

Last time I had jury duty the judge lit into the first guy whom came up with some lame ass excuse. She belittled that fucker too death was pretty damn funny. Smart judge too, because no one else had any lame ass excuses for why they couldn't serve.

I just didn't show up last time I was asked. In our part of the country they don't have penalties for it.

go its no big deal ive been called a few times.

Commit some felonies.

in florida that only works if your a convicted felon whos civil rights have not been restored

I decided im going to go and serve if called. Ill just have to work at night and get my guys all their work the night before and contact clients early in the morning or in the eve when i get back

Cory made a good point.

Show up 30 minutes late. I've done this twice and I was dismissed immediately.

I would love to serve but can't get asked for the life of me. In the almost 30 years I've been registered I've been called twice: First time was 25 or so years ago and they sent the info to my Dad's address even though I had moved to a different county. Since I had moved, I wasn't eligible. Second time was 21 years ago and I had just been in an accident and was homebound for 3 months in a cast from my toes to my thigh. No one's asked since :( I thought living in a small town I'd surely get asked. Nope - my neighbor has been called 3 times SINCE I MOVED HERE. Me, nothing.

Don't try to shirk it. It might be an interesting educational experience.

Incredible.

Tell em your in college, that worked for me when I was going

My husband moved to another country. They found the excuse acceptable.

It's amazing what some MDs will do for a blow job...

I also get a medical excuse, but I'd rather be able to serve jury duty than to suffer from the chronic disorder that gets me excused.

Register as a libertarian, and they won't ask you to do jury duty in the first place.

works in my neck of the woods.
