you can get out of it real easy just make some bs excuse to the judge why you couldn't be objective in the trial. come up with some stupid reason for being biased, ie religion, racism etc. haha.

Then again if you don't have shit to do may be interesting to even though your not getting paid.

If you gotta miss work then your employer has to pay you for it.  I think i got like $57 for the day doing it in colorado.  It was also fairly interesting to see how the legal system works.  I was hoping to get out of it but it was a DUI case where he refused to blow and they ended up keeping all 3 of the bartenders on the jury.  His ass was guilty as charged.
