Should I Be Normal™ in the chance it would let me nullify an unjust conviction, or simply deliver a communist diatribe during the selection process
I am 100% on team “pretend to be a chud and then nullify the charge no matter what it is.”
weird so did my brother but I’m p surre you’re not him
Can they actually prove you got a summons in the mail? After they wasted a day of my time sitting at a court house I juat ignored any other jury summons I got and nothing ever came of it.
Why just skip it when I could either help someone or do a diatribe
I wouldn’t risk the warrant tbh. Depending on how busy the district is, there might not even be a trial scheduled during the term. I’ve been summoned a lot for some reason, and most of the time haven’t had to do anything other than acknowledge the initial summons.
It’s usually sent certified mail or some similar thing. If you don’t respond they will resend and eventually ‘hand deliver’. OP probably won’t be picked for some kinda arbitrary unstated reason. Or maybe it will be like:
Q:“Would you trust a cop’s testimony more or less than an ordinary citizen’s?”
A: “Uhhhh…”
Q: “Dismissed.”
They dont dismiss you right away they wait until you’ve sat around for 6 more hours.
yes, lmao
Last time I went there was an ex police chief among the potential jurors. Under questioning he admitted to a bias in favor of police, saying that police “don’t lie” (lol). When they called me a said I grew up not trusting police because they lie all the time. I was dismissed by the prosecuting attorney.
Bit of a tangent, although it’s possible it applies here: if you work for the government, especially a municipal government, it’s likely you won’t be selected for a jury. The government is often a party to lawsuits, and because of that they consider government employees to be non-neutral in those situations.
or simply deliver a communist diatribe during the selection process
Selection is like an hour, the jury’s deliberation takes days, besides the lifelong impact to the defendant. If you speak your mind during selection, everyone involved will forget you quickly
Selection is like an hour, the jury’s deliberation takes days
I served on a Jury. the selection process took a week and deliberation was less than 2 days. every trial is different
the jury’s deliberation takes days
That depends on the case. Some cases will be over before lunchtime today. Now if you try to nullify chances are they will force you to deliberate until lunch tomorrow.
It would take longer than that to get the whole jury on board to nullify or agree not guilty, and if you can’t, a hung jury wouldn’t be declared until days later
The trial I was on I hung the jury and the total time from the start of the trial to declaring the jury hung was a day and a half.
I remember reading a guide from some anarchist subreddit I think about how behave during voir dire to actually get selected but now I can’t find it
Be normal
Nullifying if fun and I would do it again. Highly recommended. and on the other side of the coin you get to put chuds in their place. (you also get to put chud jurors in their place by nullifying)
Depending on what you want to do just say you love or hate law enforcement
If you have the financial stability to serve on the jury then go with “be normal” and stealth your way into it (and stay that way while on the jury). You can then do what you know is right via the jury. If you get on the jury, even if you don’t convince everyone else over to your side (a verdict or nullification) you can create a hung jury and delay an unjust process.
