The right to a jury really is an important right and there have been times where there just haven't been enough potential jurors, resulting in a lot of wasted taxpayer money to reschedule the whole thing. And really, how many times do we get called up for it in our lifetime? It seemed to me a good trade off compared to everything else I enjoy as a citizen.The CilleyGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06655326831902251300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3409457827452543019.post-52788364968778348802011-09-21T17:53:21.437-07:002011-09-21T17:53:21.437-07:00I have two weeks in November where I may get my ch...I have two weeks in November where I may get my chance to serve.

This is my second time having jury duty - but ours sounds different. I am number 577. Every night after work I call and listen to a recording. They say which numbers need to show up the next day. So far they've only called jurors two days this month and we are at 140. I guess I have a week and a half left to be called - we serve for a month. If your number is called, I don't know how that days goes. Last time I had jury duty I never had my number called either.<br /><br />I was so grossed out yet impressed and wanting to see this ball of flesh. Too cool!<br /><br />Are you going to be all fixed for Portland? I've been studying every detail of the website this afternoon. I'm excited! I don't feel prepared, but I'm still excited!Fruit Flyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10747205899650070873noreply@blogger.com
