The Peace of Summons

By Anne Skove, Esq.

We read a lot of letters praising jury service for its ability to promote patriotism, the rule of law, and education of the public about the legal system.

We've also seen voir-dire-is-stranger-than-fiction letters, full of women giving birth in the jury room, jurors falling in love, or jurors who gather together on a regular basis long after their service is complete.

It's not often one comes across such a nice letter as this: Jury Duty a Reminder of Slowing Down, by Tina Wocher, Cincinnati Enquirer (March 4, 2010).
