hanving relatives in prison pretty much gets you out of jury duty right?
*our fam lawyer is in court and i need to send my excuse letter today
I don't see why that would exempt you...
You could just fill out the jury duty card and send it in. You may not even be called. If you are, then when you go there you can tell them about your relative in prison. If they feel that you couldn't be impartial, you won't be used.
