Jury Duty

Jury duty touches the lives of thousands of Los Angelenos each year and all of us have family, friends, employers and co-workers who are affected by our jury service. I know from personal experience that a summons for jury duty raises many concerns about how you will be able to fit the civic obligation of jury duty into your busy life. The notice comes in the mail and you say, "Why me?" Three days into jury selection, the prosecuting attorney dismisses Juror #3. That's me.
