Zach...I have considered that angle as well...but it is my impression that if u are picked for a jury...you then get interviewed...and if after the interview...they don't want you in the jury(for whatever reason)...they send you back to the waiting area where you must remain until they either send u home...or u get selected for a different case.
This is the impression I got?!

I get called every three years, like clockwork. I "reschedule" to an on-duty day. I never get picked and released before lunch. Always some kinda conflict of interest obstacle in the way, thankfully.
However, when I retire next year, I look forward to helping put a boatload of the Florida low-life's behind bars. It's gonna be so fun.

There MUST be a serious conflict of interest with either the judge, lawyers, or the criminals in your case Pete. Just explain to the court that "I'm his dentist, I have seen this mans' teeth, and may hold it against him in a court of law or on his next visit to the office." Don't make me break out the "Little Shop of Horrors" references....

jury duty
Peter,
For what its worth I to own my own business. I have had Jury Duty 8 times. Yes 8 times. Its computer driven and if you dont go in as I have been told you can be arrested (but it rarely happens) most of the time its a fine. It was so bad I know the court clerk by name (Barbara)and I did ask to be put before a judge to say isnt 8 times enough? To no avail. Just some food for thought if you are excused without serving the day the court has the right to call you again in 1 year. If you do serve the day(the most boring thing on this earth) you then have freedom for 3 years! As I found out the only way to get out of it is medical condition, student going to school out of state, or if you have been convicted on a class A felony! Moral of the story all us law biding people should just go hold some one up and get arrested so we dont have to go to jury duty!

Funny, I'm in my mid 30s and have yet to get a jury duty summons. Every 3 years is crazy.
