The Palm Beach Post had an article today on excuses people use to get out of jury duty, “That’s no excuse“. The excuses run the usual gamut from sickness, military service, loss of income, etc. Many excuses work well and it really works if the “pleader says he can’t comply with a jury summons because he’s a “world renowned musician/celebrity…(who) never knows exactly where in the world he will be on any given day”. That’s gotten James William (Jimmy) Buffett of Palm Beach excused repeatedly in the past three years.” Gee, I have served jury duty now twice in the past three years in West Palm Beach. Think I will use as my excuse next time … “I follow around a renowed musician/celebrity..(who) never knows exactly where in the world he will be on any given day”. Think I’ll get excused ???
