Louisiana grand jury duty

If you want out of it, just do some basic research on the CJ system and let the defense know that you’re not an idiot. They typically try to select the stupidest people possible.

Then they will know for sure you are an idiot.

Not sure how they do it where you’re from but here if your name is called, you’re picked. It’s not like pettit jury where they interview and select. Grand jury names are selected at random of those subpoenaed and that’s it

One of my coworkers was selected for federal grand jury. He was selected. It was once a month for 1-3 days for a year.

Yes they only want idiots.

"If this court proves guilt beyond a reasonable doubt then would you agree that you have to convict?"


I said if the evidence presented proves guilt in my opinion then yes I would convict.
Just dance around that question a little and they'll send you home quickly.

What is the address? Is it Federal Grand Jury? Or just Grand Jury?

If it is Federal Grand Jury just hope and prey you don't get selected. If you are one of the first 30...you are screwed.

You will meet every other week for a year! I had to do it...and when the Judged asked if there is anyone who thinks they can't serve, I raised my hand.

I said, "My father shot and killed someone. I worked 7 years at Victim Services Center in Norristown, PA."

The Judge said, "None of those were Federal Crimes."

All and all it was not that bad. You get inside scoop on Future news stories.

The first rule of the grand jury is you don’t talk about the grand jury.

Scruffy has been called for jury duty twice in his short life and he hasn’t been able to go either time.

A grande jury summons means they know you're fat.
