Kim Possible<p>I was adding something to my phone's calendar, and saw that it had been a year since I was last called for jury duty. When looking up how often you can be summoned in GA, I discovered a little quirk: the rule is not that you can only be summoned once a year, but rather, that you can be summoned whenever they update the jury pool list, which is once a year. So, you could be called twice in a calendar year. This seems unfair. </p><p>From Fulton County: "Jurors are eligible to be summoned for jury duty every time a new juror master list gets uploaded to our jury management system, which is once a year."</p><p>For those in the U.S. what are the rules regarding how often you can be summoned in your state? Also, how much/how do you get paid? In Fulton County Superior Court, the rate has not changed since I first served in 1994: $25 per day, in a check mailed to you after you complete your service. (I think State Court is even less.) Your employer is required to continue your regular pay during this time, but only if you are salaried (and they can legally deduct your jury pay from your salary). The unsalaried or unemployed are SOL. </p><p>The first time I served, I couldn't afford to buy lunch. It was humiliating. </p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/jury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jury</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/JuryDuty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JuryDuty</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/court" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>court</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/SuperiorCourt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SuperiorCourt</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FultonCounty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FultonCounty</span></a></p>
