Take a look at the MR sets of Kayda, Pesky, and Illanna. They all deserve to be pink.
There are some good things about jury duty in Dallas. I just got the letter today, sent from Dallas from my father.
First, it is a one day one trial system. I know of places where jury duty takes an enitre work week. You could be empaneled on Monday, and finish on Thursday. You still have to show up on Friday. On Friday, you could be empaneled on the crime of the century and be there two months.
In Dallas, it is just one day. Unless you are empaneled. If not, or your number is not called, go home. The only way you will have to go back to the jury lounge is if your number is called, you go to the courtroom, and while you are waiting outside, the parties reach an agreement in terms of a plea bargain or settlement, or the judge denies that there is standing for a case.
Second, you can delay your trial. Say you are about to leave for Cabo, and your jury date is in there. You can put it off. So I just put mine off until the end of the month. It would be hard for me to get there in a couple of weeks. The end of the month will do me fine.
Nothing to do with a Dropkick Murphys concert in Dallas around that time. Absolutely nothing. Honest.
Now, I will never get on a jury, unless it is some joke of a case where this is no selection at all. "The people on this bench are the jury." Who says I am not using my law degree? No one will put anyone with legal training on a civil court, or a criminal court. Since I really do not trust cops, and that will certainly be a question, I will not be on a jury.
