    Congrats on completing your duty. Do you get paid for your 3 weeks work?
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    Expenses only. Other than the short bit of excitement, or rather, frustration, of deliberation at the end, my overriding impression was extreme boredom, the counsels endlessly going through huge piles of evidence, and the jurors trying hard not to nod off. They provide free coffee during deliberation, but it should have been available during the sitting as well.

    Sounds like a hard case if it lasted three weeks. The only case I ended up on was easy, open and shut on the same day. At least you didn't have to sit around doing nothing at all for too long...
