Tucson Jury Duty
Jury Duty
Everyone hates jury duty, right? When you receive the dreaded notice, the topic of conversation with family and friends for a week consists of how to get out of serving. Jury duty can take up a significant amount of time and certainly changes your schedule for a time.
Despite jury duty’s bad reputation, citizens who serve on juries universally say they would do it again and enjoyed the experience. Further, they generally learn a thing or two about the law during their experience.
At some point in your life you will likely be involved in the court system. Perhaps you will be involved in a car accident or a contract dispute. These cases require jury trials to resolve the dispute if negotiations fail. If it is your case, you want a fair, engaged, and bright jury to decide your claims.
Thus, when called for service, you should provide honest answers to the questions asked during the jury selection process and not search for a way to avoid jury duty. We need all of you to make the system function.
