How many times have you been called for jury duty?

I just got a notice to serve in June.

This is the 5th time in my life I’ve been selected.

Some people never get called at all.

What the heck.

I’ve been called up twice. Both times i said that it’s likely the judge knows me from commitment hearings (it was true at the time). They’ve never called me back to serve on a jury, which i was disappointed in, cuz here they pay you a little to serve on a jury. I was hoping to make a little money.

The last time I received a summons for jury duty was about 30 years ago. I didn’t make the jury in a civil case.

Once when I was 19, I got out of a pretty high profile case. I just said I have schizophrenia during the voir dire process

Tell them you’re schizophrenic and they’ll excuse you from jury duty. I heard there’s a certain form you can fill out and it excuses you from jury duty for life but I’ve only been able to get out of it a year at a time. Maybe you want jury duty.

I’ve been called about 5 times and have gotten out of it each time.

In California, your doctor can write a letter stating you should be permanently excused from jury duty for medical reasons. Then you just submit the letter online to your county court’s jury website.

Yeah, I thought I submitted a form like that but they called me for jury duty about three years later.
