Last Year I had Grand Jury in Anchorage, but they never quite got to my number. I was again on Local Jury duty in DEC and January, but only had to go in once.

Before a change in the laws, if they didn't' have enough people, they would snatch you off the street. Since my job required me to research in the courts and county offices, we used to get back to the office as fast as possible when we heard they were "cruising" for jury members!(Hubby has been in the pool once, and never called!)Linda Copashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00709828043437958108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-35675846179073684362015-03-16T23:13:53.966-04:002015-03-16T23:13:53.966-04:00I have that 'tattoo' on my back window!
