Question

Just voting u get called for juty duty?

Answer 1

No, voting and jury duty are completely separate things.  I have voted in every election for the last 20 years and have never been called for jury duty.

Answer 2

Jury duty isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Bring a book and you'll be fine. Most employers pay your regular salary for the duration.

Answer 3

Why are you so obsessed with jury duty? You've asked this 10 times in the last few days. Your question has been answered over and over again.

Depends on where you live,they pull the names from the drivers license list or the voters list. You do not get called just because you vote.

Answer 4

It depends some places use voting records.  But just b/c you vote does't mean you will be called.  They have a pool of people they can choose from it's just whether or not you are in that pool the jury office can choose from.

In my area they use car registration, I got called before my parents.  All of us thought strange but they were in the pool they could choose from but I got called before them and they never got called.  So it's a variable it's going to depend and you should contact your jury comissioner if you question what they use.

And it wasn't that bad.  I learned so much for those 2 weeks I am actually thankful I have never been on the wrong side of a judge.

Answer 5

Your place to find out about jury duty is----google---jury handbook.

Today's Judges still control outcome of trials by their charge to jurors.---The jury needs to be aware that they are the deciders of the Facts and the Law.

Answer 6

Maybe.  The potential jury lists are usually pulled from voter registration records, property ownership records and the phone books.  Whether or not anyone on these combined lists gets called is usually by chance.

Answer 7

You usually get called after getting your license renewed or getting new license plates.  ... or registering to vote.  Take a book.. it will be a long day.  Everything is in slow motion.

Answer 8

Jury duty is not taken from voters but from all citizens registered on various agencies.  Anyway, render jury duty because it is a civic participation in the proper administration of justice.

Answer 9

I was not registered to vote when I got called for jury duty.

Answer 10

Not so - It is your drivers license or real estate you own that gets you picked for jury duty.

Answer 11

I did have Jury duty and I loved it.  It was wonderful that I was able to help in doing something for my state and country

don't get me wrong I am not a My country freak but the case I had was gross and undesirable.  I would like to do more Jury duty.
