Re: i've got jury duty..
What county do you live in. I went to Mineola (Nassau) a few weeks ago and I was out of there by 3:00 p.m. The summer is a slow time for cases and not many are going on. Most people today if they are not selected are out in 1 or 2 days. Also, if you are in Mineola, they have a separate TV room with 8 internet computers. Even though its boring, time will go fast.

Re: i've got jury duty..
i'm going to mineola.. this is actually my second time this year cause i postponed last time.. i am going in with my laptop and air card, some magazines and some snacks.. so i will be very well prepared. . i just hate doing jury duty.. lawyers don't like me so if i do get called into a room i won't get selected for a trial.. i never EVER do..

Actually, I don't think you'll be called on Tues. I had the same situation two weeks ago and I was 1514 or something...and I didn't get called in till Thursday. So probably on Wednesday--maybe!
When I went, I actually sat there for about two or so hours until 11, when they just told us they had enough jurors ands end us all home. So it could be okay! Any way, good luck with it all!

Re: i've got jury duty..
I'm not sure with other areas but in Brooklyn & Manhattan, you only stay for 1 day. If they didn't call you by 5 PM, they will release you and never serve jury again until 7 years. However, if you name get called, they will send you to the court room and wait for your name to get called again..which usually takes couple of days.
As annoying & inconvenience as it is, we should be very lucky to live in a country where we have a 'fair' justice. Good luck and bring a book/magazine to read.
