last year october: jury summons
this year october: jury summons
WHY????
elle?????
IS IT BC I SAID I DISTRUST COPS??? "that bitch distrusts cops, drag her ass back here to detroit"
elle?????
the duty itself isnt even the problem for me ITS THE DRIVE
elle?????
its not inconvenient enough to get out of JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF ANXIETY
elle?????
at least...itd be on an in-office day...so instead of being in office...i will be screaming down the freeway
トラファルガー・ロー
Oh no. Good luck friend.
elle?????
i think the most heinous part is not knowing for SURE for sure if i gotta drive out there until the evening before
likec an u please give me 3 days' notice
elle?????
god im going to be annoyingly stressed out about this for no good goddamn reason for the entire month gnashes teeth
elle?????

It’s a terrible trick indeed! How dare the courts call you in again.
elle?????
why couldnt the district court call me
why is it circuit
why is it always circuit
𝐴𝑟𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑡
NOOOOO
elle?????
the district court is a jaunty 10m away on backroads
peace, focus, eagerness to do my civic duty
𝐴𝑟𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑡
I wish I could give you my state's jury summons
where you show up and no matter what happens (goes to court, gets dismissed after 1 hour, etc), you cannot be summoned for another 2 years
𝐴𝑟𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑡
I WISH I COULD GIVE THIS TO YOU
elle?????
circuit court is a stressful half hour freeway battle and parking fuss bc u forget to bring cash and gotta download cashapp while a dude is staring at u and parking othercars and then u sit for 4 hours in one chair then 2 in a bench and tell a judge u mistrust cops while misspeaking "reuters" so he thinks ur an idiot
elle?????
SPACE I HAD A GLIMMER OF HOPE
but ours is like "u can get ur ass summoned as many times as we please but if u SERVED on a jury ur exempt for like 2 years"
so my ass isnt exempt sobs
𝐴𝑟𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑡
elle?????
the kicker is i would honestly?? enjoy being part of a jury
IF I DIDNT HAVE TO DRIVE TO DETROIT TO DO IT!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
«Wᴀɴᴅᴇʀᴇʀ»
I have yet to get jury summoned ever in my life and it kinda scares me a little bit at this point
But I would share whatever fearful cheat code I have going on with you if I could
«Wᴀɴᴅᴇʀᴇʀ»
prays for an easy drive for you ;_;
☼ zinnia
ugh drive safe!! i've actually served on a jury btw and it wasn't as bad as expected
☼ zinnia
but my state's the same way re: you're only exempt if you actually served
Rynet_iii
hoo boy. best o' luck!
aro riot
oh my god GOOD LUCK MAY THEY NOT CALL YOU IN
elle?????
«Wᴀɴᴅᴇʀᴇʀ» : the process itself is fine its mostly "sit in this lobby for 4 hours til we tell you to sit outside this courtroom for 1hr then sit in the gallery while lawyers poll people about their biases"
elle?????
☼ zinnia : ya!! like itd be fine its just...the Drive...RUGHHGHGHH
lilbirdy

lilbirdy

lilbirdy
i thought for sure they were going to call my ass to court so i could pay a fine but uh... nope. never got anything in the mail. i read a lot of reddit posts where ppl say that more often than not, they are not going to waste their time trying to find you
