They can come down pretty hard on those not responding either coming in or sending in the request to be excused form. I went down there in May 2014 after sending them some e-mails as not to blindside them about stuff after my April Jury Summons in 2014. Had a Federal Court Jury Summons in 2009 or so in Ocala. The judge dismissed me as he thought I was hiding something. The case was alleged employment discrimination based on race against a Hispanic cop in the Claremont Police Department who wanted to write reports in Spanish and other matters. I was sitting between two extremely attractive women so I did want to stay on the jury but had trouble answering the questions with simple answers. My life is nothing but complicated as far as my connections to the legal system is concerned. And even more complicated now in 2018.
I could write a thousand page book on my complicated connections with the legal system.
The Federal Jury found for the defendant Police Department and the City of Claremont but the Judge's written decision was a bit abrasive on the employers if memory serves.
The case in 2014 was some kind of vehicular homicide that would have taken up 16 weeks of jury time according to the Sumter County Judge who dismissed all in the Jury Pool after the lawyers convinced the defendant to plead guilty without a trial.
Pinellas County, FL Judge dismissed me when I said I had a law degree around 2004.
Sonoma County Prosecutor dismissed me in 1994 when I told them about my work with victims of crimes and materials in law libraries for them. The Judge said he had seen me hanging around the Sonoma County Law Library in Santa Rosa, California. I hung out in a lot of law libraries in the 1990s.
I had had a Sumter County Jury Summons around 2006 when I wrote them with some excuse about doing legal work. They accepted it. It was volunteer work but still work as in very stressful and taxing.
