Bad Timing - Grand Prize Winner

[jamesq]

As many of you know, I'm attending garething and stephtopia's wedding on April 1st. It's in Cuba and we're leaving March 30 and returning on April 7th.

Or maybe not because I've just received a Juror Summons for Friday March 28.

I have no problem doing my civic duty, but couldn't they have waited two weeks? Sadly, relaxing on the beach is not considered a good enough reason to be excused. I don't even want to be excused, I just want to postpone it a little.

Seconded! (I'm pretty sure you can get out of it by being racially or politically biased.)

I know you're both joking, but I am not going to start lying to a judge. I'll plead my case, but if I miss the trip so be it.
