Jury Duty...

[alissaroot]

I laughed when I checked the mail yesterday and got a summons to appear for jury duty. Murphy's Law. Of course I knew that if I started a big project -like finishing a degree-that something would go wrong. I never would have predicted jury duty, though, it was a surprise. The thing is, I have always wanted to be a juror one time. I've thought about it every time I've registered to vote. I figured it would be interesting to see my local judicial process in action. A guy at work said that if I didn't want to do it, I could just tell them how busy I am with school and everything, that I wouldn't be able to concentrate on a case, and they would excuse me. But I kinda wanna do it. Have any of you guys ever served on a jury? Would you agree to do it in the middle of studying for a big test? How was your experience?
