I don't get why everyone seems to hate this type of thing~
Court is a pretty interesting place.

Q-Did you go into the store?
A-Yes
Q-Why
A-To buy some things
Q-Did you steal anything
A-No
Q-But you could have
A-Yes
Q-Why didn't you
A-I don't steal
Q-But you were caught with a backpack full of DVDs
A-I didn't know they were there
Repeat for three hours or until you kill yourself. No one in their right mind would want to sit through a trial that they have no stake in.

I was sent a jury summons once, but I was away. It was too late to respond once I realised I had been sent it.

no because there's no jury duty here because it's completely useless.

What would you change about jury duty if given the opportunity?

Oh. Here jury work is unpaid, but you can claim travel expenses and loss of earnings.

Is it true that you can pretend to be a racist/sexist bigot to get out of jury duty?

I wouldn't try it if you live in the South. It might increase your chances of being picked.

My name was called up but I was challenged by one of the lawyers, who can do so for any reason.

That might work.
Maybe if OP prints out a bunch of FIJA pamphlets and brings them along, they'll tell him to get lost before he can be selected.
