So I screwed up and forgot to mail in the questionnaire with my summons. Am I looking at a fine now? Tried to fill it out online and it kept giving me an invalid name/number blah blah. I'm just going to tell them I misplaced it if they ask I guess. I just really don't feel like paying a big fine or going to jail for 3 days lol.

You should be fine. Just tell them you put it in the mailbox, don't act like you didn't send it back.
I did it about a year and a half ago. It was dumb. I never got called, so I was sent out by 10:30 everyday.

I just did the same thing last week. Forgot to mail the reply back, so they sent a reminder, told me to fill out the form on the back and bring it with me. My 6th time, Jeez... Here in Mass, if you're 70, you can just blow it off...

Dont worry about it. Just wait for the reminder. They cannot prove that you ever got it in the first place. know someone that has never even gone. He continues to just throw them away when he gets them. Pretty shtty but he gets away with it and has never gotten a warrant.

I understand that jury duty is hard especially when we're the cook AND dishwasher for our businesses but jury duty is a great experience.
Every citizen should do it at least once.

I actually enjoyed it. I was also payed to be there when I worked for a big company so it was not big deal. It is a cool process especially if you have not seen that side of it.

I served on a jury some years ago and it boggles my mind how many fellow jurors were saying "they're guilty until they show me otherwise". The burden of proof is to prove guilt, NOT to prove innocence. Sad state of justice. BTW, the defendant was found not guilty but some people reeeally wanted him to be guilty.

My ex is now in her third year of law school - lots of times the defendant is guilty, but the arresting officer bungled the arrest somehow - cops think that they can get away with anything and it allows guilty persons to go free. i think she said that illegal searches are fairly common. the police dont know what they are doing about half of the time. i heard some interesting stories about improper evidence collection, and frisks that the cops bungled.
