The only thing you might get out of that is a few days in jail for “contempt of court” for refusal to comply”. When the judge asks the potential jurors if they have any questions, ask them if they can explain how the process of “jury nullification” works. You will almost certainly be dismissed of jury duty immediately. What worked for me once is I asked for religious exemption because “I cannot pass judgement onto others. Only God and Jesus can judge others”. Good luck. |

User ID: 79048837 United States 10/18/2021 12:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have been called for jury duty almost every other year for about 15 years. I would go and was only picked once for a quick 4 day small non-injury trial. I have my own business and work about 60 hrs per week. I no longer have a minute to ever deal with or answer these jury requests again. I ignored one last year and never heard from them again. There are enough people sitting around who are not employed, let them waste their time with this bureaucratic bs. "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear." Marcus Tullius Cicero |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79190023 You mention JN and a world of bad things will fall on you... even if you're outside the court house and have nothing to do with any trial! But it will get you out of duty. DUTY... lol This is a hot button issue for sure. They do NOT want this info out there. Ballot box, soap box, jury box even ammo box... all ok. BUt don't mention JN box. They have never called me and I've been a voter in this state for decades.

(OP) User ID: 73514734 United States 10/19/2021 03:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well I went to the courthouse this morning and wimped out... I merely invoked my ability to postpone the jury duty for three months and didn't raise a ruckus about non compliance. Okay Okay... for me any ways it is a bit intimidating if you can't get yourself mentally prepared. If only I was a year older I could opt out for good. So is anyone laughing at me yet?
