You are welcome. I could have really kicked a hornet's nest with answers to the judge's questions but decided the wisest policy was only to say what I could prove later on to the Judge. So, he probably realized I was hiding something and excused me.

During the Judge's voir dire he seemed to want very short answers to his questions and not the hours of responses I would have needed to fully explain my experiences with legal education and the access to practical materials for survivors/victims of crimes. I would also have needed all my supporting documentation too. I tried to do as much as I could in writing since January of 1991.

When you are Summoned for Jury Service you have no idea what kind of case-- Civil or Criminal-- or what will be the subject matter-- Employment Discrimination, Patent Infringement, Copyright, Diversity, etc. http://www.nolo.com/legal-encycloped...ral-29884.html

I recall that among the jury panel I was in were a retired CIA manager, a dog groomer, a fellow Villager, among others.
