stupid jury duty

7. What if I do not serve?

• Failure to go to court on the date you have been summoned for jury service is a criminal infraction.

• You may be fined $136.00 or held in contempt of court.
  

That I found disturbing. Jury duty sucks. Mine is on June 1st, on the same day of my first day of summer class. I read online that some cases require the juries to come in multiple times due to the prolonging of the case. That better not happen. It would suck major ass if I get picked to judge on a case.

As for summer class, I'm looking forward to it. For some reason, I think it will go by quite fast =)
