2011.05.09 - Jury Selection Day One

[BigFatMommyDog]

LOL - I said the guy sounds young - Insession scroll says he's 40-50

 

[doogiesgirl]

I'm sorry I haven't seen anyone say one way or the other....is CA (or GA) in the courtroom?

Also....I am guessing that the DT would rather have younger men on the jury, does anyone else think that younger to middle aged men are more of a wild card vs say middle aged women? I am hoping for some Mr. Moms and lots of moms and grandma's.

:cow:

 

[Rallihanna]

That guy seemed way too keen to serve IMO.

 

[whiteangora]

Is it normal for employers to pay their employees while they spend 2 months on jury duty! Seems incredible to me.

 

[ZsaZsa]

Do they have to say now whether they will strike a Juror or do it later?

 

[strawberry]

Boy, CM is really trying to talk this guy out of serving. Have they been doing that with every one?

 

[Sooner Fan#1]

I was thinking, when they were talking about not having internet access, Mason was going to say, "Have you considered, without internet access, the toll this might take on your farmville, should you be chosen for this jury?"

:floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh:

HHJP: You'll get a few moments to munch on something....

 

[Kentjbkent]

HHJP sounds like it is going to be a VERY SHORT lunch break....

 

[tut med]

like how the state was shaking their heads when defense asked do you have any questions...lol

My employer paid me while on jury duty :twocents:

HHJP - Hope you'll avail yourselves to the cafeteria here for lunch. You'll get a few moments to munch on something...

 

[sleutherontheside]

JA asked if lunch was being catered. HHJP said "I work for Gov. rick Scott 3% paycut." HAHAHAHAHA

 

[Rallihanna]

Why did they object? She has an elderly father to care for.

They were IMO hoping she'd cause a disruption to the trial by needing to leave.

Boy, CM is really trying to talk this guy out of serving. Have they been doing that with every one?

:yes:

 

[TiaM]

HHJP: Any hardship in serving on jury 6-8 weeks?

Juror: No sir.

CM: Are you sure? Are you really sure? Are you sure that you are really sure? Are you really really really sure? Are you sure that you are really really really sure?..........

 

[Casey Serin]
