Feel you WDE. I was subpoenaed (witness to druck driving accident) and have called many times as Monday of all days I have be in court. One of the most important days of my career and I desperately need to be in the office.
Have you called the attorney that subpoenaed you? Yes.......four times. I even wrote down the day and times I called.

Would being self employed and sole employee be a good excuse to not serve ? One day might not be too bad but if the case drug out for several days it could be an issue in lost income.

I got a jury summons not long after I got out of college and had started a new job. My home address was still listed as my parents house but I was living in Tennessee. Was able to get out of it back then but I wish I would receive another summons, because I would like to serve.

It is a pain in the ass and most trials are boring as all get out, but anyone who gets out of it because they simply don't want to be bothered have no more use to us as a civilized society than the Snowflake Generation we speak about so often on here. Answer your summons and if you have a legit reason to not serve, you will be excused. If not excused answer all questions honestly and you might learn something and help society, whether it is a Civil or Criminal case. If you are lucky, you might be picked for a Grand Jury and have a real eye opening experience.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

I would actually like to do it just for the experience, but would really put a strain on the finances if it got drug out very long

Some of us have to work for a living. Out of curiosity what does a public defender make compared to the $10 a day a jurror makes? jury duty shouldnt be mandatory I know I wouldnt want a jury full of ticked off people that dont even want to be there in the first place.

I have no idea what a public defender makes. But, it isn’t very much. In my opinion, if you refuse jury duty, you should forfeit your right to vote.

I went down for Jury Duty early last year and i was very sick, the Judge could tell, so he cut me loose. He told they would get in touch with me at a later date, and i figured i probably wouldn't hear from them, but sure enough i received another in the mail 2 months later! So i went back down and luckily got grouped up with a panel quick and made it to at courtroom. Well the defendants attorneys asked all kinds of questions including what's you favorite movies, (also if you knew anyone that had been robbed and i did) and when it was my turn i replied anything Clint Eastwood especially Dirty Harry, well turns out the Defendant was accused of several armed robberies and i guess they didn't want me on the Jury, cause was sent home a few hours later 😁
How many people am i willing to sacrifice for freedom? Everyone. All of them...

And I'm purty positive that no one who mentioned a Crime/Drama movie was picked, well except for the guy that said Scarface 🤣

The State of Alabama requires employers to give employees TIME OFF WITH PAY for jury duty. Unless you're self employed you shouldn't miss any wages. https://www.blr.com/Compensation/Leave-Benefits/Jury-Duty-Court-Appearance-in-Alabama
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.
