JLCrab Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 So apart from the lunacy of this. I have never had a problem calling any county court, telling them I live outside the country and having myself excused jury duty. To date, I have never been marched off to the nearest paddy wagon upon entry to the country. Now maybe had I declared myself as Hispanic (I am) or worst still Black I could well have been shot at immigration, for fear of the poor immigration officers life as an habitual jury duty skipper!!!! Making an effort to be excused from jury duty is one thing. Ignoring a summons to appear for jury duty whether you are at home of in Burkina Faso is another. If you have never been marched etc. etc. upon arrival it is because there was no outstanding warrant for your arrest. I was on a flight-watch list (not no-fly) for many years and was routinely pulled over for questioning upon re-entry to USA.
