Painless Jury Duty, Range Report

[fightingquaker13]

After the dust storm my initial jury duty post caused, I thought I would post how it turned out. For once I can say I am proud of Palm Beach County. They have their act together. It used to be when you were called, you showed up up at  8 am and sat around in a cattle call for up to three days to see if you were called or not. No more.
Now, you call the day before and punch in your juror number. I was told I was on "phone reserve' and would not be required to show up this morning. I was to call back by 10:30 am, for a possible afternoon voire dire, which I dutifully did. Again, I was on "phone reserve" and had to call back at 5 pm for possible service tommorow. As it turns out, I was told that my services were not required and I was excused. I never had to leave my home.
FQ13, who can feel public spirted, without having moved too far from the couch. Take that BillT!

See how helpful being on those Homeland Security "Watch Lists" can be?

Thanks FQ, it doesn't have to be painful.

Well, now we know who to send the jury wranglers to talk to if the still use a cumbersome system.
