I used to work for lawyers and was told that anyone in the legal profession — attorneys, secretaries, paralegals, etc. — will most likely not be selected for a jury. Still have to report for duty though.
I was called for duty once — right after I was discharged from the hospital and in no condition to serve, so I was excused. Now that I’m retired and in better health, they won’t call me. SIGH!

Wow, I was thinking the same thing.
I, however, would love to be on a jury where there is such a knowledgeable person in the group.
I got called several times, but I never got placed on a jury .. bummer.

Agree, I’ve testified in product liability lawsuits as an expert witness and watched the voir dire process up close. Avoid left brain jurors at all cost!
To: tennmountainman
At least he showed up. Well as Woody Allen once said, 80% of success is just showing up!

I don’t see bumper stickers anywhere near as often as I used to, say twenty years ago. I still see a few stubborn Obama/Biden stickers on for those who are DWPB, or Driving While Politically Blinded.

I just hope it is not one of those long drawn out trials where the jury is sequestered, in which case I would consider the whole thing a set up.

Not to worry. I’d say the odds are 100:1 that he is punted by the defense.

You never know. It’s curious he didn’t get turned away at the door when the lawyer asks for your name. I always do, must have that ‘hang ‘em high’ look about me.
Now he has to go through the interview phase, looks like?

I”m sure they’d all show for Jury Duty, I remember Giuliani being called when he was mayor.
Quite frankly that was stupid and inappropriate, the Mayor of a city really is dq’d from being on a jury in it.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I just wish she’d stop calling me all the time. It gets creepy after a while.
