That's not always the case around these parts. May only be one trial on the docket.

In most places they use the drivers license as a jury pool. So anyone with a valid drivers license call be called. I have done Federal & county.



A buddy was called for jury duty for a murder trial. He runs a small business and there is no one to do his job if he is out. When they asked if he could be impartial he said "sure, I figure if they were arrested they are guilt so put them in prison." He was not chosen as a juror for some reason.

We have a judge here at the county house that has a good retort for those that state said facts about arrest and guilt.



"Fine, there is a trial about business next door. There were no arrests. Shouldn't take more than a month or 2. Report back to the jury room."
