[quote=Anonymous]Trial lawyer here. Sorry to say I would NOT be comfortable with a volunteer jury system. (And I'm not aware of any legitimate suggestion to move in that direction.) A jury full of retired and unemployed people is not exactly a fair cross-section of the population, and certainly not a "jury of peers" of many who are accused. I get that your vacation is important, but so are your Constitutional rights. Do your best to defer, but I wouldn't hold your breath that the system is going to change anytime soon. [/quote]
