The Harris Corporation released a poll on jury duty recently. Harris Poll on Jury Duty. The poll contains some interesting findings on who is most likely to show up for jury duty and actually end up serving on a jury. It also shows that Americans, by a factor of 2 to 1, would trust a jury more than a judge to arrive at a fair verdict in a case. Sadly, the poll reveals that many Americans are still shirking their civic responsibility — three-quarters of Americans have never served on a jury, and over half have never attended jury duty. The poll is worth taking a look at, and it provides some interesting information on how Americans currently view trial by jury in this country.
Come learn more about this interesting and important topic.
Please register by Thursday April 3, and remember, lunch will be a delicious buffet, so no need to select a meal preference.
