June, one of the prime boating months and the Burt man gets a jury summons for the entire month! The Court eager to start ruining his summer right away, calls him in June 7.
We were pushing for him to wear his totally patriotic red, white & blue Tabasco American flag shirt, but he opted for quiet brown plaid instead. Apparently every form of dress is acceptable right up to the dude who was 30 minutes late wearing yellow and white beach gear and flip flops.
The "instructions" indicated proper garb as being casual-something you would wear to an interview or church. Huh? Now that's like receiving a wedding invite that specifies guest wear semi-dressy casual cocktail bathing attire.
Anyway he won the lottery right away and has an invite to a party on July 26. One day-no muss, no fuss, do not pass go and do not collect $200. Not sure if I can reveal his "voir dire" (look it up!)until after the trial so stay tuned. Needless to say no one in the courtroom laughed but I found it priceless!
