[QUOTE="john250, post: 1079014, member: 4406"] I've been called twice, in some 50 yrs of eligibility. The first time jury selection was on a Monday and the coming Saturday I was scheduled to drive an F-150 600 miles to D.C. to pick up my brides furniture. The case was a murder trial and could easily have lasted into the weekend. I was dismissed. I think the guy was convicted, but he got less time than I did (with the bride). More recently, I was called and again I passed on my duty. The case was a lot less serious than murder, but I don't really remember. My excuse was that we were in the short daylight time of year and I had only an 80 yr old father to help me. The DA didn't want to let me go, but he did. Now that I'm retired and have time on my hands, I doubt I'll ever be called again. [/QUOTE]
