Federal Court Jury Summons

I hope I don't get on a jury. Some of those federal ones go forever, especially financial crimes. But I have actually no possible excuse; I'm their ideal juror.

At least it's a call-in thing. Unless I get called I won't have to spend too much time in the airless Santa Ana Federal District Court Building.

Waaah! I don't want to join this Justice League!

i was going to say it sounds like fun until i saw this. "This is a U.S. District Court." OH WOWEEE. like i'm going to go out and buy a tuxedo because these assholes take themselves too seriously. can't you just pretend you're a member of some group that hates the person on trial? you know, "i'm a communist and think all bankers ought to be in jail for their crimes against humanity," or, "i don't know why a woman would want a job, anyway."

I can handle a collared shirt and non-jeans pants. It's just sort of funny.

The real problem is that federal cases can go long.
