How many times have you been selected for jury duty?

once for the county and once for the district
and the county one got cancelled and the district one I had a drs excuse. :)

Proof they use more than one list....

I have received TWO jury summons for the month of April. Same court -- different courthouses, different dates.

The difference is my name. Some of my "official" records -- my driver's license for example - I am Sara Jane X. On others I am Sara J. X.

One summons is for Sara Jane the other Sara J. I am glad I had already sent in the response for the first one I received - it is an easier courthouse!

(No, I do not have to go to both!)

I turned 69 last week and so far I have not been called. I am a registered voter, own a home,
have a drivers license and have no criminal record. It makes you wander what criteria they use to decide on calling you or not. My wife got her first notice last week and she is 59.:confused::confused:

Let's see... 3 times. Once at the Daley Center - good people watching there; once for the Criminal Courts at 26th and California and once at the far south suburban court center. Where I actually got picked. The case was a drunk driver and when I acknowledged that I have a problem with DWI, because drunk drivers tend to get head injuries, and I'm a rehab nurse -- I got un-selected very fast! But then I got to sit behind one of the attorneys. Watching them circle and cross off juror numbers as they worked the panel was very interesting. In Cook County, jury duty is tied to voter registration and I've heard that if you don't vote, you don't get picked even though you're a registered voter. In my last job I was starting to wonder where a jury summons was when I needed it? But not so in this job!

I've been selected several times but only spent a day at the courthouse once. I always got out of it for one reason or another (NOT that I was trying to shove off my duty, it just happened to fall on bad times)

I have a driver's license, am a registered voter, have been at the same address for 38 years, and never received a summons until I was in my 50's. I was excused for medical reasons, and have never been summoned since, altho medical excuses are only valid for 3 years. However, I know of folks who get summoned religiously every 3 years no matter what they were excused for. :confused:
