so i e-mailed, of course, and - i'm in! i'm in! for both sessions, to boot! could i be drooling any more? i tHINK NOT! RAAAH!
i realise i must seem like a loon, but HA! this is what it was all for! after a lifetime's worth of L.A. Law, The Practice and courtdrama movies i find myself -finally- in a jury, albeit only a mock one for law students.
i was a bit scared at first that we'd only sit there and not even get to do the verdict ourselves, but the guy who runs it assured me:
"your duties would be just like a jury. hear the testimony from witnesses , arguments, etc. and then deliberate and come up w/ a decision. they'll explain all when you arrive."
AND i get $30! man are they stupid - i just hope they don't throw me out when i turn into a secret detective for the defense lawyers and leer at the REAL murderer in the audience...
