re: Do you know anyone that actually got in trouble for skipping jury-duty summons?

I've been registered to vote for almost 39 years and I have never had a summons for any kind of jury duty. I'm not sure how that's possible.

me either..... i get summoned at least once every 3 to 5 years. Last time they kept me there all fricking day, saying we would need to come back the next day. at about 6pm they finally let us go and they got the jury.

I have been registered for 37 years and never got a summons until 2013. Specifically on the date Alabama played Notre Dame for the BCS Title. I was told jury selection could last well into the evening. I threatened to walk out if we weren't wrapped up by 30 minutes before kickoff. Fortunately the perp copped a plea and I didn't have to make good on said threat. I've also been summoned twice since then. Once for a murder case but I wasn't selected.

I got my first summons less than a year after I turned 18 and registered. I was away at college so I got out of it though.

But I have gotten pulled at least 5 other times, and had to show up twice and sit while the perp made a plea.

If only I was as good at getting lottery numbers as I am getting pulled for jury duty.
