In talking to many full-timers over the years, I never met anyone who had a 'horror' story about being called for jury duty while they were on the road and not being able to get it postponed/ exempted
You didn't talk to me.....CA threatened me with jail time if I didn't get there to serve. If I didn't go, they would arrest me the next time I entered the state.....AND.....I wasn't even a resident!
It took the SD DMV to convince them I was not a CA resident. I STILL hate to go to CA......
Am I missing something here? Before you get put on California's Jury system you must be a REGISTERED VOTER in California. This means that you had to be a RESIDENT. If you dont register to vote NO jury Duty.
And I have never heard of anyplace that did not have reasonable exemptions including travel. What if you had been overseas?
I am sorry and at the risk of angering the MODERATOR...I just dont get it. It doesnt make any sense to me.
