Note: This one has been on my list to write up for a couple of years. I mentioned to someone...(I believe it was Marie @Tampa_girl7 in the northern part of Mississippi) about our courthouse being a lovely old building. So, this...

30 days until spring. It was 4 degrees F (minus 15 Celsius) here last night; but it will warm up to above freezing by the weekend. We are on the downside of winter now thank goodness. I am spending a lot of time on the phone...

I wasn't chosen as a juror

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381837) • Rockingham, Australia 5 Nov 20

The photo has nothing to do with the post. It is of the skywalk at Kalbarri. I had to drive to Bunbury, Western Australia, this morning as I’d been summoned to attend the local courthouse as a potential juror. As we arrived, we...

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169439) • United States 12 Oct 19

I submitted my documentation to Textbroker, and heard back quickly. It seems that my driver's license is expired, they cannot use it. I am glad they told me. Yesterday, after I got off the bus, I hurried back to town to the...

What a Day!

Susan @HazySue (39265) • Gouverneur, New York 14 Aug 19

Reading this quote made me think about people and how sensitive we are to what others have to say. Our feelings get hurt, we take things personally, we think comments are directed at us that may have nothing to do with us. I...

We went for a pointless drive--on purpose

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169439) • United States 4 Sep 18

I was tired of just staying at home. Hubby still is tired, but loves to go for drives. He had seen this courthouse before, but I had not. It is in Cottonwood Falls, Kansas. It is made from native limestone and walnut interior...

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 19 Dec 16

My husband was waiting for the letter from the county regarding jury duty. It arrived. We have to start calling tonight to find out if he has to report. Since you are on call for a year in this silly county, this will be the...

Have you ever served on a jury?

Kelli M @spiderdust (14756) • San Jose, California 12 Sep 16

I received a jury summons in the mail today (although I had to postpone serving -- I'm a breastfeeding mother whose baby would definitely suffer if I had to be sequestered for any period of time). This is my 4th jury summons in my...

So we begin another round of potential jury duty...

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 22 Aug 16

In our little county - which is the only place I've ever heard of this - you are a potential juror for a year. Yes, I know, that's not how works other places. He was on a case in early summer and got his 'paycheck' for it and we...

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 29 Jun 16

We thought the idea of potential jury duty was going to hang over us for a year...but now it's over. He was called by the courthouse last Friday and told to report Monday no later than 8:50 am for 9:00 roll call. Since I...

A better explanation of how jury duty will work

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 2 Mar 16

In the letter my husband received it stated that jury duty is for one year and you have to call in daily to see if you are needed. After putting a lot of thought into that we figured what the heck, how do you plan vacations and...

You gotta spend money to save money.....

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45490) • United States 26 Aug 15

Or not! LOL. We got the notice that our vehicle tags are due in September. You can pay online for which they charge you an extra $3.54. Well, I don't give the government (even local government) more money than I need to. I...

Netsbridge @Netsbridge (3253) • United States 24 Jul 12

Few days ago, 24-year-old graduate student, James Holmes, shot and killed 12 people and over 50 wounded in a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. With all the speculations on this tragedy, I am of the opinion that James Holmes is...

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85137) • Shingle Springs, California 18 Feb 11

Paperwork taken to courthouse, had a 3 second cry, bought myself some candy, and went home. So unless I mucked something up, it's all up to a judge now. So much for the easy part, now I have to do the hard stuff. Anybody want...

Don't you think courthouse is a money making place?

clorissa123 @clorissa123 (4926) • United States 10 Sep 09

Yesterday, I accompanied a friend of mine to the local court house. She was charged with speeding and "do not stop at stop sign." He went to court because usually they will reduce the fine if you appear on the court date. He...
