I have had six Jury Duty notifications. Three of these were from the Bushnell Court. I received two acceptances for excusal requests and in 2014 the defendant pled guilty after we were in the Jury Duty room for most of the morning. It was a potential 16 week vehicular homicide case according to the judge. I would have been dismissed with cause though more than likely as soon as I started to talk about my extensive interactions with the legal system because of my victim/survivor advocacy stemming out of the 2-24-1976 (2-24 is my birthday) Michelle Mitchell murder near the University of Nevada, Reno and not for NOTHING.
I did tell the Bushnell Clerk of Court about this work in 2018 when I had had another Jury Duty Summons around July 2018. I usually got bumped off Jury Duty as soon as I said I have a law degree. Quote:

Got through six seasons now of Game of Thrones. Really an exciting series with all kinds of action and characters you love to hate. Will get to the seventh soon but need to double check some movies for the details I saw in them when I watched them in the movie theater. Most movies I only see once in theaters. Only an occasion one pulls me in twice like The Greatest Showman. The Greatest Showman (2017) - Rotten Tomatoes |

I've served as a Juror plenty of times. One of the old-time guards at the Courthouse said to me once, Don't they have anybody else they could call? I liked doing it. I didn't like having any income for whatever time it took.
Send 'em up the river, Nucky! Just kidding mostly slip & fall & car accident type cases. It was a long way from the parking garage to the Courtroom. All worth it. |

The Sonoma Courty DA representative challenged me for some reason around 1994 in a drug bust case but left a lady lawyer from San Francisco on the panel up to the point I left. The judge acknowledged seeing me around the law library in Santa Rosa as I had been examining their library collection from the perspective of a survivor/victim of crime trying to see what his or her rights were as well as what kind of local services were in or around Sonoma County. Also did the same for the law library in Clearwater, FL for the Pinellas County Court. The judge knocked me out of the jury pool as soon as I said I had a law degree. This was around 2003. They did not seem to allow people even to walk around in the Bushnell Sumter Court building that I recall. I have no idea if they even have a law library there? |
NOTHING seems to be happening on NOTHING. :1rotfl:
