could be plenty of reasons for that, white or not your family could have raised you anywhere. he could be albino!

This is true. My husband is Turkish, but his race is caucasian. Normally, though, Hispanic has its own "check box".

 

[Softail]

This man has a trip scheduled for tomorrow. Not sure if he can change his ticket.

They have asked him to check and see if he can.


:lol: Judge Perry says he hopes it isn't with Jet Blue or Air Tran.

Question for the defense team......they complained forever that they wanted the case moved to South Florida.....they complain that the Hispanic population is underrepresented....YET.....a number of the Hispanic jurors called have a clear language barrier.

WTH were they thinking? That South Florida would have Hispanic persons with BETTER English??

Stop playing the race card JB and stop claiming discrimination.....it's falling on deaf ears....and I'm not talking about Mason's.

Juror 3203: Male. No hardship. Just started a business..could get his brother to run it. No financial issues, no family issues. Going out of town tomorrow-Monday to visit his children. Plane tickets bought/paid for. If airlines refund his tickets, he'll postpone so he can come back for round 2 of questioning. Would impose a hardship if he had to repurchase tickets. Will check with airline today.

Leaving to check with airline..will be back.

Did he say how long he would be away?

WHOA. Dude hasn't seen his kids in 3 years, but he mentioned grand babies, so they are adults I guess?

[BigFatMommyDog]

HHJP - hope its not airtran or jet blue - they're not good corporate citizens

 

[twall]

male, just started a business but brother could run it, has a trip planned to Ohio tomorrow,
uh oh, can it be postponed? yes, if plane tickets are refundable, state asking if he could not get tickets refunded and had to postpone the trip would it create a hardship, yes, he will check, trip is personal to see kids and g.kids, daughter bought tickets,

 

[CuriousHousewife]

LOL Judge said Air Tran and Jet Blue are not good corporate citizens.

 

[luckyme]

Jet blue is not good cooperate citizens. :floorlaugh:

 

[luv]

Did he say how long he would be away?

Until Monday, I think.

 

[Chiquita71]

3203: Hardship? no sir. I think I can handle it. I run a business and my brother can run that. No family issues...I am supposed to go to Ohio to visit my kids tomorrow. Is that gonna hurt?

HHJP: (laughs) Uh, yeah we need you here tomorrow.

I can cancel.

HHJP: anybody want to inquire?

George: if you can't get a refund...( no sound from prosecution mic)

HHJP: why don't you go check...what was the purpose of the trip?

To see kids and grandbaby. My daughter bought the tickets.

HHJP: we will get you in and out as soon as you have that information. she if they will be wiling the change fee, at the airport because you are serving on a jury.

Okay.

He said tomorrow-Monday. So, he'd be back before the trial starts but would miss additional questioning rounds this week.
