Re: Have any ACists served on a jury?

I just got a notice for jury duty in the mail Friday. If I tell the judge that I don't agree with the system and will not vote anyone guilty will he let me off? Will I get put on a do not fly list?[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I'm wondering because I assume that a judge will think I'm just trying to get out of serving.

First opportunity you see tell him you believe in jury nulification.

I've heard this term before but never took enough interest to research it. After reading the wiki page and a link from that page, I'm pretty shocked that no one can inform a jury of its right to nullify the law. Maybe I'll go ahead and serve. I don't feel obligated to answer the judge's question about strictly adhering to the law.
