you can get a different date, once.
The best way is to announce that you blatantly are going to side w/ one side. Like "well my dad did something similar and I think it was BS that [insert what they want you to be objective about] "

You might not even get called in. The last 2 times I was summoned, I used school as an excuse the first time, and the second time, my number never came up… I didn’t even have to go downtown.

You have the option to postpone once.
Beyond that, watch the questions on the polls. If you have past experience that would make you biased in the case, they’l usually dismiss you. For example, I used Hybrid’s burglary story to get off the jury of a burglary trial…
Other than that, the whole thing isn’t that bad. Make sure you bring lots of reading material and/or a laptop, as you spend alot of time just sitting and waiting to be called.

I just got called for the first time ever and I will be 37 in 2 weeks!
I thought maybe they lost my name or something.
Fortunately I was number 1641 so I never had to go last week.:tup:
