Jury service - what to do?

R

Grrr - I have just been called up for jury service and would be interested how others have dealt with this unfortunate happening. Does your studentship funding stop and can you get it back from the crown? Any ways of getting out of it?

I remember when my bessie mate got called up and she was in the middle of a big project at work having just got a sexy promotion & she didn't want to do it. Her boss wrote a letter asking for deferment & it was fine. Maybe you can get your registery to do the same?

If you can't get out of it you can constantly make references to CSI miami- like, "Uh, well in CSI they would have found DNA evidence to prove that the crime was comitted by a cross-dressing man wearing make up, so I really can't understand why they didn't find any in this case. Like, if this was CSI I'd demand that you re-run all the samples again".

Then they'll through you out in no time.
