    Building on the Jury Duty thread before, what are the best excuses you have heard?

    In Court 6, I saw a woman trying to be excused on the basis that she had a rather unique and interesting name. It didn't work.

    Most effective " I ha ha ha ha ha have a a a a a sp sp spee spee spee speech imp imp imp imped imped imped impediment"

    Also " I think I know one of the witnesses" in this case.

    Saw that one.

    Carney J to the woman: "but this trial is in public anyways, so it makes no difference"...shut her right up!

    i once saw a juror excused from a drugs case on the basis that "I hate drugs, so as far as I'm concerned they're guilty already"
