re: Tales from Jury Duty . . .

Some silly answers in this thread. One George Carlin ripoff. One guy saying you should not try to avoid duty because you may need a good jury yourself one day. Like there is some kind of correlation or maybe jury karma? Has anyone ever gotten in trouble for lying to avoid jury duty? I have never been called but would probably just give honest answers and serve my responsibilities if chosen.

I never suggested correlation or Karma. I'm not sure why you think it's silly to recognize that if you ever need a jury for whatever reason, you will want the most qualified one possible for the case.

Further, try using google. Type "juror perjury." See all the folks getting charged, realize that most instances where it happens doesn't make google, and start to understand why I said what I did. Judges don't like people who mess with the process or those who lie to them.
