Well, to my semi-surprise, I am actually going to be a juror in a criminal trial! I am Juror #12 (I could be the twelfth angry man). So, I'm not sure how much I'm going to be updating this blog during the trial; obviously, I can't say a thing about the trial until it's all over. The trial should last two weeks, starting next Tuesday. What I'm thinking of doing is keeping personal notes on my computer at home after each day, in the style of blog entries, and not posting them in public until the trial is over. Obviously, I can still post about random things, but the trial proceedings will last all day, and I'll likely be too tired to actively post every day. But we shall see.
By the way, the court system has it right in terms of hours. The day starts at 10:30, breaks at noon for an HOUR AND A HALF lunch, resumes at 1:30, breaks again at 3 for fifteen minutes, resumes at 3:15, and then the day ends at 4:30. In other words, you are never in the courtroom for longer than an hour and a half at a time. Pretty amazing.
