I mean, have you recieved a summons (letter) either from your municpality or another in which you’re selected to be a juror. You show up to the courts and assigned a number along with being asked about occupation, status, etc. but is the probability even that high on becoming part of the 12 jurors? Is it a criminal offense for failing to appear?

    Well… taking a look for those with autism, they’re cooked.

    Yes, it’s a mandatory thing, and those with autism are not automatically exempt, despite that being an ADA violation. It’s disgusting to make someone do this, and is actually unlawful all things considered in my opinion.

        Because I’m uninformed on the matter, I opined on it, hence the reason why I gave an opinion for something that I’m not certain on. I sounded like I was certain, but I clearly stated it was an opinion, not fact.

        As for why I talked about this with autism, that’s because their communication, social skills, and reasoning are hampered, and even if they try to accommodate for that sort of deal, there are still issues that can’t be fixed. Those, like me (as an example), would be unable to be “good” jurors as a result of our hampered emotional control.
