"And why do you not judge for yourselves what is right? Thus, when you go with your accuser before a magistrate, on the way make an effort to settle the case, or you may be dragged before the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer throw you in prison. I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny" (Luke 12:57-59).
I have been called for jury duty several times in my adult life, but I have never been seated. I know most people hope to get out of jury duty when they have been summoned, but I have always wanted to sit for a trial. Law has always been an interest of mine, and I think the experience of hearing a case put before the court would be quite interesting.
