Default Re: Summoned for Jury Duty

I haven't served on a jury. But I've selected a few of them (I'm a court clerk). It really depends on the case you get. If it's a civil matter, you probably won't like serving too much because civil cases are mostly boring and mostly frivolous (you'd be horrified to see how many people filed suit against Sears/Home Depot/Wal-Mart and decided to sue for it).

Criminal cases on the other hand...well, there are certain white collar crimes like forgery, but more than likely you'll get a drug case or maybe an assault. Those can get really interesting.
