[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's luck of the draw. DH and I have lived in NOVA for 20 years now. This past year I was called up for fed jury duty (and ended up not having to serve). He's never been called up. [b]We're both lawyers, so I'm guessing we'd get kicked off by one side or the other anyway.[/b] But yeah, neither of us called up for 20 years, until me the past year and they didn't need my pool of jurors for a trial at all.[/quote] DC is the only place where you aren't likely to get excused just because you're a lawyer. There are too many of us here. [/quote] Everyone says this--it's one of those things people repeat again and again. But the lawyers usually do get booted. [/quote] I am a lawyer for 25 years and get called every 3 years and I have served on a Jury. Many of my friends(also DC lawyers-work for DC gov) have also been called and served. [/quote]
