wiegie Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Avoiding Jury Duty, Don't try this... why not: Slye apologized for the affidavit and avoided being cited on a criminal failure to appear rap. And he also was excused from serving on a jury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twiley Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I find "return to sender, does not live here" to be pretty effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twiley Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I suppose "doesn't live here" means they'd stop sending them? Ding ding ding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Hilarious. He just said what I think alot of us would like to say at one point in time on any number of topics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheikYerbuti Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Why respond at all? Just pretend it got lost in the mail? I suppose "doesn't live here" means they'd stop sending them? Is that legal? You're kinda lying to the gubberment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballjoe Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I was on call for jury duty this past month. I was not needed though and did not have to appear. I called the night before each day I was scheduled to see if I was needed. The sheriff delivered the summons to my house and put it in my wifes hand. I guess I could have said she never gave it to me but I didn't want to take that chance. I won't pretend I wanted to serve but if I was called I would have done the best job I could.

yo mama Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 (edited) Is that legal? You're kinda lying to the gubberment. And if there's one thing gubberment knows a lot about, its lying. I never get called for jury duty. I mark ATTORNEY big and bold on the information card and, surprisingly, neither side ever wants me to serve. The one time I did get called back in Houston I made it to voir dire. Walked into the court, saw defense counsel, waived to him and said "Hey, Mark!" The judge called me to the bench and asked how we knew each other and I told him the truth: we were members of the Scotch Club in law school. Needless to say, plaintiff's counsel had me thrown off the jury. Booze 1 - legal system 0. Edited May 6, 2009 by yo mama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Agent Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 I've never been called to serve. I used to date the jury administrator's daughter so we always joke that she pulled me from the system. But it's weird that I have never been called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hat Trick Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I've never been called to serve. +1 and I find it odd. I figure when I do get called I will have vacation planned during that time or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
