7. Jury Duty

While my jury duty case was originally explained to us as a Civil Rights case, it hardly lived up to the expection. Jury duty - even Federal jury duty - is NOTHING like Law and Order or the drama of the OJ Simpson trial. I kept waiting for the smoking gun. Didn't happen. We were able to reach a unanimous verdict and wrapped things up today. We even made the Long Beach paper. I still can't understand why they didn't ask if we had pets during voir dire. Big mistake.
