You should make sure you get put in prison. Then everybody wins.

Why would you want to get out of jury duty?

Other than the fact of getting stuck in small rooms with large groups of people (and there are always a few stinky ones) for something like $6/day?

Yes, why would you want to get out of it?


Never over credit a jury. Juries are made up of 12 men and women who were too dumb to figure out how to get out of jury duty.

You're not getting out of jury duty, might as well get that out of your head right now.
However, when called, it's very easy to get out of sitting on a particular jury.

You'll be asked a few questions, one of which will probably be along the lines of " Do you think you can sit on this jury without prejudiced toward one side or the other", or might want to out right volunteer this information, if you say you can not the result will be you not being picked for that trial.

Then again, I severed jury duty not to long ago and wasn't even picked out of the jury pool to be interviewed for a trail jury. I just showed up and sat in a court room for about an hour three or four times.

What if you were the defendent?
How would you like your future to be in the hands of the stupid?

If you've ever skipped or intentionally voided out of jury duty, you've also lost the right to bitch about the justice system being broken since you just did your little part to cripple it.
If I'd been on OJ's jury he wouldn't be staging little robberies in casinos today...

Not to "jinx" myself, but I'm approaching 31 years of age and have yet to be summoned. :unsure:

When interviewed make sure you mention, "I can tell if people are guilty just by looking at them". ;)

A little religious mania wouldn't go astray either, telling them that the hand of god guided you here to smite this sinner............. your choice of religious paraphenalia too, but the odder the better :naughty:

Wee Eden, you are the mentalest mental victim that ever got mentalised by a mentalist.

The best way of getting out of Jury duty is to shoot the judge
