They ask standard questions, like if you know anyone involved, or if you know anything about the trial, and if you have any preconcieved notions. Just say yes to one of them.

I just got one last month and told them due to my busy work schedule this time of year and a lot of traveling that I would be unable to go. They deferred me until spring/summer. I didn’t get picked for a jury last time because in the survey it asked if your religious values would override laws and I said yes and I said that I would trust a cop’s word over the word of the person on trial if it was a “he said, she said” situation. So, I got a day off of work and got to watch movies on my laptop in the lounge until like 3:00 and then got to go home. It’s really not that bad.

I got summoned last year. I went to Greens courthouse and paid for a days worth of parking in the meter and went into the building and got in line etc etc etc. Well, turns out that apparently someone screwed up because when I showed up my juror number wasn’t supposed to be at that trial, but at the same time everything I had said that day. They sent me home. I was pissed because I paid for parking already and 3 friends of mine had the same one. I was actually interested to see what shook down, but I don’t know yet. I’m sure I’ll get another go soon enough. As mentioned, worst case scenario show up and do the selection thing. It’s pretty easy to just say one thing wrong and be out of selection. So you could always do that.
