My wife got a jury summons for Thanks giving week. Since we had her family in town and she didn't want to miss them they let her post pone her jury duty. They also gave her the option of getting notified by text.
Last night about 8:30 she got a text. It said that she had to be at the courthouse @8A this morning and if she didn't show up there would be a warrant for her arrest! Talk about a rush! What if we were out of town? What if whatever and she could not make it? We had her cousin with us and I had to take the kid to school since my wife had to be at the court house.
I'm all for doing our civic duty but we needed a little more lead notice.
