I'm 21 and for some reason or another, I've gotten JD once every year since I turned 18. The first time my case got dismissed, the second time I spent 8hrs squished between two massive Albanian women with B.O. that could have killed a horse and a dying iPod after getting drenched walking from the El, but at least there was food there that time. I just got hit up again for one on March 1, but since I go to school out of state, I got out of it. Schwing.
But just bring your iPod, some snacks, and a decent book and be ready to hunker down for a while. Some people are in and out, some people stay all day. It is an experience though.

i learned about JD in my business law class. they ask you a buncha like legal/moral opinionated questions and if you answer them all dishonestly/ridiculously then they wont pick u lol

i got summoned one time but i told them no because i dont believe in the court system so i never got anything back to show up or whatever. thats how i got out of it. i see it as a waste of my time. i have better things to do, like sleep or work. i have the rest of my career to sit in court rooms when i start it, not now.

nah i just said that so i didnt get asked to go in. i wont be going to work in the court system but i will have to be there at times since im going to try and get into either the fbi, dea, or us marshals. i'd rather spend my day working or sleeping then sitting in the court room wasting time on something that doesnt involve me.

Last month I was picked for grand jury duty and I have to go every Friday up until the end of May. I actually like it I've gotten some insurance fraud, drunk driving, parole violation, resisting arrest (with video footage lol), child abuse, stalking, defacating in public and some others soo far. What sucks is that before hearing each case they have to read to you each law and what it entails. So you hear about the law for 45 mins and you then hear the actual case for like 20. I just facebook it or text during the law part lol. I pay attention for most of it. Plus lately they've been letting us out early. Go in at 9 and get out by 12 or 1. Better than bein at work. My job pays me for day and I make that baller $5 a day for jury service.

We're lucky they pay us at all. It's your civic duty to be there. Everyone whines about not seeing their tax dollars at work, but there they are. Most occupations will cover you for JD, the least we can do is show up, be honest, and help the system work. If everybody took your attitude, our justice system would be in worse shape than it is now and we'd have no input from our peers. It's really a shame people feel this way.

I have to be in there in July, cause apparently they caught the kid that broke into my car. Gonna be a looong and useless day since he's a minor and won't get punished properly anyway.
I got out of it once but now there's probbably a continuation, dunno why it takes them 3 months to continue trying someone, stupid judicial system doesn't even work properly.
