Many years ago my doctor had me excused from jury duty due to back problems. Haven't received a summons since.

Speaking of things we fear!!!! Volunteers should/could go first and those with no ailments, should/could go next.

i don't want some grisley murder trial

I was on a jury for a bank robbery / murder trial. It was very interesting however incredibly sad. I did learn a lot of slang terminology though.

I was only called in once. It was a case involving the hospital that I happened to work at. They asked the same questions to all of us potential jurors. The one question was, 'Do you have any connection with this case?"-I knew I would be excused since I worked there, but they asked us each, individually and alphabetically. I was the last one asked, since I'm at the end of the alphabet! I was promptly excused. By that time, I wanted to stay and see what happened!

Now, I live in a bigger city. Going to the county building in this weather would be a huge PIA. Transportation and parking, yuck! As a cancer patient, my oncologist told me to avoid crowded places due to the flu epidemic. I understand it is our civic duty but it is a hardship for some.

Only got called once but I've never served. Here, on the paperwork, you are assigned a group number. Each Tuesday I'd have to call in and they tell you what groups need to show up that day. My group was called in once, but they never used any of us.

My father used to get called all the time. He moved here with me when he could no longer live alone and got a summons and in his 70s and although not deaf, pretty much hearing impaired. I called and of course they dismissed him but I always thought after a certain age, they'd no longer be eligible to serve because of elderly issues.
