It doesn’t seem like it’s very random. Tomorrow will be the 3rd time since Covid. Two previous were city court…this one is 40th district felony court. I hope I don’t get selected, I’ll turn it into a fishing day REAL QUICK.

How often do y’all get the notices in the mail? My wife and kids have NEVER been summoned. I’ve been about a dozen times in 35 years. I must be on some kind of “list”.

Yeh. I used to think I was getting setup on a sting operation for speeding on my GSXR or something. Now I think it’s just the middle class, middle aged, republican voting history that they must enjoy. I must fit their agenda.

I would call and say I am not available that day and if you make me come in you have to pay 1000 times my fuel expense,

I was out, before I even had to enter. Covid form, “have you had any of these symptoms in the last 5 days”? Why yes, most of them. They were like, “later sucker” and I obliged happily.

the ones I noticed that got dismissed were the ones who said they couldn't judge anyone..


A good rule of angling philosophy is not to interfere with another fisherman's ways of being happy, unless you want to be hated.

The clerk’s office must of found out about how much you fish and work on trolling motors.

Why are people so against doing their civic duty? Last time I got picked, we sent an eighteen-year-old rapist away for life.

I believe I have been notified 4 times but nothing the last 12 years.

I did receive 3 from Dallas county that I don't count. I live in Tarrant Co and had to tell them several times.
