All she had to do to get out of jury duty is mention that she’s aware of the 1895 supreme court decision in the 1895 Sparf vs The US case and there isn’t a prosecutor in the country who would allow her to serve on a jury.

As a courtesy and an educational aid, could you be so kind as to post a link to the case or a summary of it? What was the decision and how is it important to us.

(Really this should be done when any case is referenced, some of us don't know where or how to find that data. Thanks)

Yeah, but first you've got to show up at the courthouse, get picked for a pool and go through the questioning to get to that part. Plus there are lots of civil cases where your knowledge of jury nullification doesn't really apply.
