Tell the court you're a teacher and an appropriate substitute cannot be found/obtained. Does your honor wish to negatively impact the education of our youth? It worked for me anyway - except I didn't really ask that question.

Hmmm, well, I guess I'll save my material on the relative merits of their live albums for someone who really wants to get put on the jury blacklist.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Feb 2022, 6:30pmI just want out of jury duty, not committed to a psychiatric hospital.

Re: The Dictator observations thread.
Iwas chosen for jury duty once at like the orst possible time. Ultimately I was not picked for any cases. Truth be told a week before or later and Id have gladly done it.
Re: The Dictator observations thread.
I've had jury duty three times and have never been chosen. One time, I knew someone else in the jury pool, the second time, I said the plaintiff looked a lot like our next door neighbor who was suing us frivolously at the time and the third time, they just didn't pick me. My advice, just be your regular sunny self!

I got a note from my mom (well, a letter from my dean) attesting that I'm teaching this term and no replacement is possible. I've submitted my request and would expect that'll be accepted given that I'm only seeking a deferral. I'm happy to convict a cop or a trucker or set free a shoplifter.

And I got my deferral. I will not be dispensing hot, cold, or lukewarm justice.
