I just got a grand jury summons in the mail for a 19 week term starting in December. From what I understand. Grand Juries are different than regular juries and the selection process is different as well. I've read that no matter what you have to serve on the grand jury. There is no getting out. You are only able to postpone it. I've read descriptions where during selection you say pass or serve and then if you pass they will pick you again, seemingly within the year.
As I work at a job where I can basically take off whenever I want and they will pay me for jury duty. I really don't have any issues serving. I think it would be an interesting once in a lifetime experience that i won't be able to talk about with anybody except in broad general terms!
I have been picked to serve as a petit juror once before, but the listings of the names were online and my name never popped up so I didn't have to go in.
Anyone have any experience with Grand Juries? or any interesting regular juries too?
