Oh shit I didn't show up for jury duty

GABBO GABBO GABBO

I registered once I received the summons, but just sort of forgot due to all the shit going on at work and planning my wedding.
Am I going to prison?

Silmaril

Yes,



Best start loosening up.

Bacon-BuTTy

Same thing happend to a friend of mine.

he went to prison for 3 days.*

lost his anal virginity though, so it's not all bad.**



*seriously

**untrue

Slungsolow

have fun planning your conjugal honeymoon.

PotU

Shit, flee the country!

I guess you have to pay a fine, I don't know.

Hunter

Have fun getting violently sodomized by burley men.

No, Manifest, you'll be fine. Give the courthouse a call and ask to speak to whoever is in charge of jury selection (usually an admin) and see what you need to do.

They usually don't rape people for it, but you are an exceptionally pretty metro male, so they might make an exception.

Ashcroft

A Federal pound you in the ass prison.

voting, jury duty, and paying taxes are all things i intend to avoid

except they tax me before i get my paycheck so that bits kinda tricky

but after finishing uni i can go overseas and not pay back student loans yay

Slungsolow

I'm sure they'll cut a reality TV star and an internet forum moderator some slack. Don't mention the comic thing though... they'll think you're a softie.

But seriously for REAL my friend did go to prison.

he just forgot what day it was.

I went to the court with him as support, and he explained to the guy at the gate, and the guy was all "Oh dear oh dear, it might be a short spell inside for you son"

And my friend did like a nervous laugh, and the guy was all "no seriously"

Then he was led away inside.

Three days later my friend came back and told us that "Prison sucks"

However this is in the UK.

Call them up and tell them you were very ill, had a flat tire, or whatever excuse you can come up with. They will put you back in the pool and go from there.

yeah, that's it... lie... didn't you ever watch Mr Rogers? YOU MUST SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS.

If Oz has taught me anything, you either need to be straight up psycho (like bite the penis tip of the first person that makes you give him a bj and smear feces on the walls of your cell) or join a gang to make it inside. If you join the Aryans, they give you a nifty tattoo on your butt cheek.

And when he got out, he STILL had to go back and do Jury duty on a diffrent case.

Fuck you you're not making me feel better.
Also, fuck the UK apparently.

Hunter

Do you know how many people skip jury duty every day? Thousands. The system barely works for important things, I think you'll get away with this one.

But yeah, all jokes aside, you are going to prison.

Probably for a few days at most, maybe a week. But you know, start informing people to feed your pets.

But don't you want the experience of being sequestered with Tia Carerra, experiencing funny shenanigans along the way with your little dog?

i know a guy who skipped jury duty and he was fined $1000 and thrown in jail for a few days and when he came out he was pretty bruised up and refused to talk about what it was like inside...


and then he had to be on the jury for a trail about some drug dealers and he was driving and stopped at a red light and some guy got out of a car next to him and smashed his windscreen with a baseball bat and yelled 'NOT GUILTY!' at him and sped off


then his dog died

Okay.

Mani's fucked.

Druhim

You're so not going to prison. You might get a disappointed look from the courthouse clerk you deal with but somehow I think you'll be able to cope with that. Absolute worst case scenario, they might sigh dramatically and even roll their eyes.
Steel yourself.

Don't be an elitist Manifest, I'm sure his days of experience on this forum makes him an expert.

12 angry men is a great movie.

What would've happened if that guy had skipped out of his jury duty? Hrmm? That kid would've gone to jail.

Just think about that.

go and tell them you hate all black people as much as you hate hispanics, white guys, asians, and everyone who comes either from america or countries other than america



it would be hard for them to put you on a jury

IT was great up until the end when it went horribly wrong.

I dont even know what movie that is.

Wait, IT? as in, 'it'?

Like, "It" came from behind?

That movie sounds horrible.

Lets talk about 12 angry men.

I don't mind being on a jury, or serving again or something, I just don't want to fuck up my wedding, as it's only 4 weeks away.
