After the second time being rejected (obviously hard of hearing), I got a doctor's note - explaining that I would never recover from being so - and got tossed out of the jury pool.
I wouldn't have minded serving, but the acoustics in most courtrooms SUCK.
I have tinnitus from flash bangs and gunfire inside houses, and 13 years flying helicopters. I can still hear the judge’s instructions, so I can’t use that one. My wife is fascinated by court proceedings and would love to serve on a jury. They won’t use her either because she is married to a retired police officer.
