WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK · 11:15am Mar 22nd, 2014
So... A while ago I got a Jury Summons in the mail for the Monday 24th of March at 9am (it is currently Sunday 12:10am on the 23rd as I'm typing this).
The thing that I always thought about when I saw a Jury Summons get mentioned on TV is "THose things aren't real, they're just an urban myth." Then what happens. I GET ONE IN THE FUCKING MAIL. A friend of mine got one too. They said it was boring as shit.
Unless I get some sort of super-interesting case like a murder (knock on wood) then I ain't interested.
I feel like Flutter-Raging 
What was the summons about?
What sort of case is it?

Hell if I know I just have to show up to court on Monday XD
When you show up they survey you, and if they find out something about you that can be biased to the case, they send you home. For example here in NY a motorcycle gang "attacked" an man on the highway with his family. If I had gotten a summons, and then told them that past experience dictates that motorcyclists can tend to be reckless when riding. They would have sent me home because I have a motorcycle bias. If you don't want it make them not like you.
