If California Courts want us to support them… Perhaps they should support us!
I understand that most citizens look for any way possible to avoid their civic responsibility. I appreciate that you implemented the “One Day, One Trial” system to reduce the amount of wasted time and productivity that comes from keeping a jury room full of people sitting around for a week. I’m OK with the juror pool being drawn from the DMV rolls. But I am appalled that the State of California does not recognize the hardship it causes working families by forcing the caregiver parent of a family with young, school age children to have to find child care for jury service.
