You rebel, you
I had Jury duty today. I was going about my business, working when my boss sent me an email asking how i got out of Jury Duty.
@#$!@#$...i totaly forgot. Anyone else do this? What happens? Am i going to the chair?
You rebel, you
first a jury summons ignored, next ill be shooting heroine in the alley way behind my building and robbing old ladys.
Call the court immediately, as in right now. Tell them you're an idiot and forgot about it. Be a kiss ass. What happens from there depends on what kind of mood the court is in, but you're absolutely, positively 100% better off contacting them ASAP.
Been trying, they dont answer the phones until 0930. Should i still try and go down there? Would it do me any good or would they just turn me away?
I'd wait to talk to someone on the phone first.
When you get arrested, be sure to request a jury trial.
you were probably found guilty
Just go asap and leave work and collect your $6
Were you summoned to bexar county jury duty?
Website says basically a $10 fine of you play along with them, I'm guessing by agreeing to show up at a later date.
Just show in court screaming "I'm out of order? You're out of order! The whole system is out of order!" Problem solved.
There will be bench warrant issued for your arrest if you do not contact the court immediately and play the kiss-ass role.
I had been summoned to Jury Duty next Thursday...I knew I had a big project due that Friday and would need that extra day...called them up...asked to get it postponed...and sure as ...they were like...how's June sound...I was like PERFECT...sweet...
Nice. I was actually looking forward to going. I've only been selected one other time and was never put on a jury.
I thought i put it on my calendar, but apparently not. of course the summons is sitting right here in a stack of papers on my desk.
btw, calling 0938 and the message says, please call back after 0930 as we are not available now.
uhh....lol government.
Yea, then one of his jurors will "forget" to show up to his trial and get it delayed so S_P has to spend an extra night or two w/ Bubba and the other non- sexual rapists in County Jail...I think not! He's better off with a judge in that case.
bunch of jailhouse lawyers in this thread
dont drop the soap
Just call them, if they dont answer, just go over there and talk to the people at the desk. They will schedule you for another time and maybe give you some bull $10 fee or something.... either way, be sure you do it asap.
This happened to my dad. He called and they rescheduled it for the next week or two. They were actually shocked that he called and admitted to the mistake.
Yeah, its not that big of a deal to just call them and let them know you forgot. happens, they got 500 other people to pick from, its not like they are desperate for people to show up.
yep, sorry was late reporting back.
Called, guy answered and didnt even give me a second to explain. Asked for the number on my summons and rescheduled me for may.
did you call back and explain that he didnt give you a chance to explain?
Yeah I've forgot about 15 times once. They finnally sent a reminder if I didn't go they would enforce the law. So I called, got put on a list, never called me. Done and done.
So what will happen to Soul Patch if he forgets again?
