[QUOTE]Originally posted by alfrin: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Erbo: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by alfrin: [qb]have you ever had jury duty, it's so fsking awesome Free food (really good food at that) Free Room in a nice hotel You don't even have to go home at that its like a vacation, that you don't have to pay for, not even taxes, its not that they were trying to make a good verdict or look good ; :rolleyes: [/qb][/QUOTE]Sorry, alfrin, I [i]have[/i] actually served on a jury. I didn't get free food [i]or[/i] a free room. (The jury I was on wasn't sequestered. Neither was the Jacko jury.) It was a murder trial, that took about a week from start to finish. (The question wasn't whether the guy was guilty or not, it was more like "what's he actually guilty [i]of[/i]?" Second-degree murder was the verdict.) That was back in California. I haven't been called up in Colorado yet, but I understand Arapahoe County operates on the "one day/one trial" system. [/qb][/QUOTE]Well, maybe Nevada handles jury duty a little differently, or maybe things have changed in the 2 years since I was on it. Sorry if any of my info i s incorrect, I sometimes forget that things difer from state to state [/QB][/QUOTE]
