I’ve served on one jury, and been summoned many, many other times. In fact, given how often I’ve been called, my theory is that the system has a quota of one person from each name: one John Smith, one David Jones, one Paul Kafasis.

Anyhow, despite what those who’ve never served think, jury duty isn’t fun. It is a serious matter though, and this anonymous piece on one man’s experience is well worth reading.
