Maybe they are looking for a jury of peers for an accused cat burglar. One that is already a convicted feline.
Probably got on the jury duty list from
I guess Sal the cat was registered to vote?
Whew, I am glad to hear that. LOL
Refuse to show and see what happens when they try to arrest him.
My grandmother lived in Suffolk county, not Boston, but Revere.
They called her for jury duty...after she had passed on.
...
There are ten statutory disqualifications preventing people from serving on a jury - and Mrs Esposito said Sal was not suitable because he could not understand the language.
However, jurors are ‘not expected’ to have a perfect command of the English language.
The other exemptions did not apply because Sal was not ill, too old or a convicted felon.
Just more funny, yet sad, proof how stupid our public servants are.
WHY did this idiotic woman INCLUDE HER CAT on the CENSUS?
The CENSUS is a count of HUMANS!
Whenever I call the jury office and finally reach somebody, they tell me to wait for their next letter. Here is what they sent:
YOU ARE HEREBY ORDERED to appear before the above entitled Court on _____________, to show cause why you should not be adjudged guilty of contempt of court and punished accordingly for your failure to appear for jury service on ____________ and your failure to appear in Department 15 of this court on ___________ as ordered in a letter dated ________.Can anybody tell me when I'm supposed to appear? :-) They never list the dates to appear. The lines (spaces for dates and times) are always blank.Failure to appear...
BTW, I missed my first date because I was starting a new job and completely forgot about it. Since then I've been getting letters with blank dates.
I'm thinking of getting a state senator involved.
The feline should be prepared of being convicted of a felinary.

I read another article on this and the owner said that she thought the court had mistakenly gotten his name from her census form. She said her census form asked about pets in the household. My census record didn’t ask about pets and I thought those summoned for jury duty were from listings on voter rolls or driver licenses. I have a feeling she claimed Sal was a person living at her address and he was either registered to vote or had a driver’s license and now it has caught up with her. I am wondering about voter fraud or something to do with illegal immigrant status.
I think this needs investigation and I don’t mean the cat.
I say don’t let him go.
When they come to arrest the cat for “Failure to Appear”, let the cops take him.
Make Sal pay the fine also.
>>She wrote that Sal was ‘unable to speak and understand English’ - <<
So do a large number of Hispanic students in the Los Angeles area.
He may have voted.
I, too, have had it with these scofflaws.
Maybe Toonces will give him a ride!

>>I’ll bet Sal-the-cat voted too. Probably got on the jury duty list from registering to vote.
They might be demanding that she show up so they can arrest her for fraud. Sal is either:
1) A licensed driver
2) A registered voter
3) A welfare recipient
It doesn’t matter which, the woman needs to go to jail. I’d bet that Sal voted absentee for Obama in 2008.
