Current Events > Woohoo, I didn't get selected for federal jury duty

(+) Yeah! (+)

Your jury service for this term has ended. You are no longer required to report or check for instructions. We thank you for serving as a juror for the United States District Court and wish to express our sincere appreciation. We hope you found it to be a rewarding experience. Thank you.

I had to either call in or log into the web site to see if I needed to actually go to court. Fortunately, I never had to go. I was on call for this for the last month and this is the last week of my on call period.

I've only ever had to go once, and only had to go to one case (husband and wife suing each other over a car collision). I wasn't picked for the jury, and when we returned to the jury pool room, was informed all the other jury cases for the day were either postponed or settled already, so we got paid and allowed to leave.
