Best way to get out of jury duty? Asking for a friend 👀
If she has a young baby does that count somehow? 😂
Discussion
Act retarded or say something racist? lol
And if she wants to go the non racist route? 😂
I asked grok to hypothetically help us lol
“Hypothetically speaking, there are a few legitimate ways people might try to get excused from jury duty, depending on the jurisdiction and circumstances. Courts typically allow exemptions or deferrals for specific reasons—here are some common strategies that could work:
Prove a Scheduling Conflict: If you have a pre-planned, non-refundable trip or a critical work obligation (like a surgeon with scheduled operations), you could request a deferral to a later date. Courts often accommodate this if you provide documentation and ask politely.
Claim Hardship: If serving would cause significant financial or personal strain—like losing your only source of income or needing to care for a dependent (e.g., a child or elderly relative)—you might be excused. You’d need to explain your situation clearly, maybe with proof like a letter from an employer or doctor.
Medical Excuse: A note from a doctor stating that you have a condition (physical or mental) that prevents you from serving can get you off the hook. This works best if it’s genuine, like severe anxiety or a physical disability that makes sitting for hours impossible.
Bias or Prejudice: During the voir dire process (jury selection), you could express strong opinions that suggest you can’t be impartial. For example, if it’s a criminal case, saying you distrust the police or believe all defendants are guilty might get you dismissed. Attorneys on either side can strike you for cause or use a peremptory challenge. Just don’t overact—judges can see through obvious fakes.
Student or Caregiver Status: In some places, full-time students or primary caregivers can request an exemption. Check your local court’s rules, as this varies.”
Grok makes some interesting points. Thanks!
Yeah the baby is often a valid excuse from jury duty especially if she's breast feeding -- will depend on the jurisdiction though 👀
Will have to verify that. Thanks
Yeah you can't get childcare.
Seems like the baby might be a valid route. I’ll look into it. Thanks
Onboard them to nostr, Nazis aren't allowed to do jury duty
Wait. Is this a new marketing campaign? 👀👀
It looks like it!
Unmarketing 2025 has begun!
I’ll ask her is she has an npub 🤣
Never have i ever had to do this humiliation ritual. Never signed up for forced services. Never voted, so never put myself in the system for them to force me into this shit.

Just be yourself, I’m sure you’ll be dismissed for Bitcoiner bias.
It’s for a friend
I imagine you probably have nostr:npub1lxzaxzge0jq9u9cecucctdt5lslwgp7hcxmp2l0wn8r2ecjenwasu6svxa muted but I think he may have some ideas. I’m also curious.
I dont 🤣
well thats a recent development then lol
I always find a way to bring up my deep seated religious beliefs. Kinda depends what kind of trial and which attorney you want to dismiss you
but I'm a good citizen and at least go to the courthouse ❤️
She got a letter saying she needs to attend a later date. They don’t say what the trial is about in it
Tell them you know about jury nullification. Lol
You’re the second person to propose this one. Sounds like a great one tbh
You can go online and answer to the letter. I did it for my mom and she didn't have to go. There are different options on the website when you put in the ticket number
I’ll tell her to look into this. She said she had to go but doesn’t hurt to look. Thanks!
