I'll have to try that.
I got a jury summons from Park County (Colorado) yesterday. They sent it to my address in Idaho. And it's not a fluke. Wife got one from Park Co about a month ago. SMFH...

Well up early and getting ready for my tribulatiom. I've been on duty 3 times before I just was surprised that at my age I would still be called. I wasn't trying to get out of it but I'm sure my bladder won't be happy today !!!

My first wife got one about 3-4 months after she died. I had to contact Douglas County to let them know that she would be unable to attend. [fail]Quote:
