I didn't get called for years because my DH was military & we never lived in Texas, which has always been our legal residence. Since he retired & we moved back here 12 years ago, Dave has never been called & I've been called twice but both cases were resolved before the trials even began. I personally would LOVE to serve on a jury - even if it was a boring case. I really DO think it's my civic duty. The way I see it, if I were ever on trial for something (heaven forbid!), I wouldn't want the jury made up entirely of people who were too dumb or unlucky to get out of serving!!
