I am on the hook for calling into Jury Service this week. There are five bullets in that jury service gun. The first one fired last night and missed me. There are four more.

Twice before I had to go in, but only sat around the waiting room for half a day and was dismissed both times without even making it to voie dire. Under the LA county rules, you have one day / one trial. There are many steps before you are actually enpaneled. If I ever make it to voie dire, I was planning on using the strategy that Gigi mentioned about the cops being professionals and that the defense must prove their client is innocence more than the state must prove the defendant is guilty.
