“We ask jurors in the hallway to come back into the main room. Have a seat and make yourselves comfortable.”
Here we all are, waiting . . .
“This is the end of your service.” Hurray!!!
They are going to give us a “Proof of Service,” which means that we do not have to serve again for a minimum of 2 years, and realistically we will not be called again for another 6 years. According to the laws of the State of New York, we will not again have to serve for 2 years. However, it is the practice within the County of New York (which is comprised of Manhattan) that we will not be called back for 6 years.
Wonderful!
