It is mandatory, you do not get paid a reasonable wage (not even minimum wage). Sure, some, although very few, employers pay you for it, & they are not required to do so by law. The court pays $15.00 a day, how are you supposed to live on that?
So why is it that our government can force us to participate in something that can cost us our homes or at the very least put us in debt? Isn't this america, where we are supposed to have freedom of choice?
Oh & don't tell me that you can get out of jury duty by claiming financial hardship, cause at least in L.A. County they removed that ability.
