LOL. Right before the trail was to start the person decided to plea and that was it. The judge came in and told us a bit about the case and sent us home. The neat thing though is one of the other jurors was someone I knew and so we ended up going for coffee, so all was not lost! Hopefully I wont get called again before my time runs out the end of August.

Now that is a unique way to get a date with a friend. Glad it went so quickly for you.

but was eliminated because I went to elementary school with the DEFENDANT.

I remembered him from school because I saw him being dragged to the principal's office frequently..

I haven't been called since I was in my early 20's. I always wonder, why not?

I ended up being the last person taken off the jury by the defendant so my jury duty was extremely short also!

Lucky you! I've sat for hours with the kids in the court daycare.

I have never been called for jury duty. Dh has been called twice since we've been married.

Glad you got to go for coffee!
