Yah. Federal trial instead of DC...which I guess makes it longer. It also meant it was in a different courthouse than the DC one, and that they pay you $40 a day (instead of $4 a day or whatever it is at the DC one). It was actually a case that had been transferred from Detroit! The only bummer is that it sounded really interesting - but also difficult. I probably would not have been a very good juror for the case - too emotionally involved.

6 weeks of trying to do my job at CTE on the evenings and weekends would have been horrible, I have to say. I am so relieved that I was dismissed.
