Have got a 'summons' once, but like you LZ, I was far down the line and the jurors were selected long before me.

My mother was on a pretty hot case about 6-7 years ago. It was a rape and murder case in which the defendent carjacked a lady's car taking her with him and then drove out to the middle of nowhere and raped and killed her. The evidence was quite overwhelming (blood on his clothes, eyewitnesses, fingerprints in the car, and semen samples that matched) so it was a no brainer, but the trial lasted over a month and my mom was sequestered(sp) for the last two weeks of it. She swears on everything holy that next time she gets called, she is going to go in and act like a whacked out schizo just released from the 'hosipital'
