Oh crap moment

[Alpha2]

I obsessed over that myself...left numerous reminders all over the house to make sure. Concluded the case on Thursday. 4 day case. Civil case, rear end collision. Perps insurance co. tried to say that the lady that got rear ended stopped at a light on I25 offramp was half at fault. THAT crap cost them some bucks.

First time I've ever gotten the summons, got picked first time out! I was supposed to be the secret alternate juror, but one of the other's was found wandering around the courthouse, and couldn't find the 5th floor. So I was up!

4th time I've been called in the 29 years I've lived in Arapahoe County. I'll let you guys know what the word is tomorrow.

Oh....Arapahoe county...well I'll ask my wife to keep an eye out for a guy getting booked for skipping out on jury duty...I'll see if she can keep an eye out for ya in jail...keep ya safe ya know. ACSO don't mess around

Left a message for the jury commissioner, recording says to expect a reply within 2 days. Evidently the best way according to the phone mail system of A County is to send an email so that's done as well. This should be fun, and stupidity should have it's consequences.

Thanks wyome, I prefer toast rather than plain bread if she can help out with that. Let a couple of friends in the SO know so they can stop by and say "hi".

My only advice:

[newracer]

My wife was on the jury of a murder trail. She said it was stressful but very interesting.

Ok boys, no need to organize a break out, all is good. Got an email asking if there are any dates in the next 6 months I'm unavailable and confirming my correct address. Next time I'll add the date to my calendar lol.

My wife called and left a mssg she couldn't make it. They never called back. I guess she'll get another one.

Well, quit wearing your "Free Colorado" tee shirt

Haha, I do wear that shirt quite often.

Its an inconvenience to be sure, but if you look at it as free "Dinner Theater" you'll probably find the experience more positive than negative (especially if you get a good criminal case ... civil cases can be interesting but are mostly boring).

I figure it might be kind of cool to see how that side of the system works. My job pays me for going and I have PLENTY of leave time to cover if they didn't.
