  1. Interesting exemptions to #JuryDuty for the county I live in.

  2. "Curiosity quickly gave way to numb shock at how many people’s lives had been touched by domestic violence or murder. Or both. People you see every day. People who fix airplanes." Derek Askey for The Sun thesunmagazine.org/articles/60 #juryduty #crime #violence #parenthood #longreads

  3. While standing outside a courthouse, Roker shared, “Well, got out of the Today show early because I’ve got jury duty. It’s everybody’s civic duty to do the duty.”

    Of course, the resident jokester couldn’t let the opportunity slide, jokingly adding, “I said duty twice!”

    “Hey now!!! All rise!! Time for #juryduty,” he captioned the clip.

  5. The judge notes that the VAST majority of the jurors have maintained their anonimity and some have even contacted the courts in an effort to remain anonymous.

    Look at this mess the 3 or 4 jurors who took interviews have created.

    Now EIGHT out of the 12 feel unsafe and a judge says they all have "good cause" for secrecy.

    The issue is the jurors can't further sue without being more public... this might spur DA charges instead imo...

  6. The mutual aid fundraiser for the "holdout" juror in the Lindsay Clancy case has passed $100k after news that the juror has been experiencing doxxing along with online and offline intimidation.

    The only Black juror is also facing an eviction, people have flocked to the fundraiser with words of support to help him get back on his feet and praising him for participating in a normal civic duty.

  7. My husband made it twenty-five years without a jury duty summons. Then his number came up, and it turns out real courtrooms have better material than most legal dramas.

    I was texting him through the whole thing, laughing too hard to type back.

  8. Jury Duty: Theatre You Cannot Leave

    The envelope looks like a bill and behaves like a warrant. It arrives in the plain mail between a seed catalog and a credit offer, your name printed the way only a government database can print it, and inside is a summons: report to the courthouse on a Monday in March, at half past eight in the morning, prepared to stay. You did not audition for this production. You signed no contract, negotiated no fee, read no script. The paper tells you what happens if you ignore it, and what happens is contempt: a fine, a cell, or both. Of all the performances running in America, this is the only one that conscripts its audience. By the end of the week you may be deciding whether a stranger loses liberty, money, children, or, in the courtrooms that still ask the question, life. The republic keeps one room in which that decision belongs to twelve people who did not volunteer that morning, and every seat in that room is filled by force of law. […]

  11. Montana Free Press: Facebook, the new jury notice?. “Since the beginning of May, the sheriff’s office has been posting on its Facebook page about once a week the names of county residents who have not responded to their jury-duty summonses. The posts urge people to either respond via a provided link or call the clerk of court, but some comments under the posts (and questions sent to us here […]

  13. I spent most of June and half of July serving on the jury in a murder trial. I learned more about DNA, cell phone records, and fentanyl than I ever wanted to. If you don't mind spending 15 minutes reading about drugs, YouTube, and criminals talking to the police without a lawyer, look at my blog:

  14. I find myself saying things like "Let the record show that I already fed you" to my cat.

  15. Now that the trial’s over, I can begin sharing some of the bonkers shit I heard:

    counsel: “What did you think were the contents of the bag?”
    witness: “Drugs, or cereal.”
    …
    counsel: “So, not a gun?”

  16. Fevered, miserable, still a juror. One hour in, I could no longer contain whatever was trying to exit my nose. Couldn’t quite get the attention of the bailiff from where I was, so I raised my hand during a lull to ask, “May I get some tissues, Your Honor?” Certainly not the stupidest thing I’ve said in a courtroom, but it was profoundly embarrassing nonetheless. #law #juryduty

  17. It's almost time for me to dive into the jury duty pool... I better bring my trunks. If I'm selected, MAN, that $25 will REALLY help me out of a couple jams. If not, well... that $12 will help me outta one jam.
