Topic Wiki

Do your jury duty.

Manhattan Criminal Court:
The boring introductory speech takes about 45 minutes, and should begin relatively on time. Therefore, coming 45 minutes late is no big deal.

If you have a deferment, don't waster your time at the criminal court. Go straight to 60 Centre Street room 139. The line can get busy, so try to come at a good time.

Remember to charge your phone in 8 years.  :) Although by then you'll be able to stick it in your ear to charge it.

well actually it seems like they closed a few months ago. I just checked online. I was there this past winter. Was around for about 2 years or so. There used to be a schnitzel stand in the area that came and went as well. When I was at SHUK it was jammed with heimishe attorneys etc. pretty good food too. oh well. The area can definitely use a lunch spot.

Yup, and if they send you one before then, you just send them back a copy of the paper that you have, that says you do not have to go for the next 8 years.
What?! In CA it's 1 year!

That's very little time. With such a large population why do they need you back so soon ?

Maybe they have a larger number of lawsuits?

Or a larger number of ineligible people, like illegal immigrants.

Good luck. I once heard that the jury is made up of mesugeners...Guess its only some days.

Are you hoping to be exempt, or do you want to sit in on a trial?
