We don't have jurys here, but I was a witness once.
After five years I witnessed a fight in a bar I found two pissed off nazis from my door. Mr. Policemen were pissed off because they had tried to find me a whole week. I ran multiple companies, so I wasn't in home very often. Those bozos would find me if they'd had brains enough to visit my companies.
Well, they let me read what I had witnessed five years ago, and that's that, but I knew they hated me and they treated me like criminal. I didn't cared. It must have been my big leather sofas and chairs, top notch hi-fis and tv and video. That was before home theaters.
Well, I went to the court and spent there a whole day. I read my witness document again, then they asked me two (!) questions and that was that. Government paid me appr. $50 for a day's work.
Teached me to act as witness, but at that first time I cannot help it. I was in a bar and drunken punk started to fight with waitress. Nobody wanted to help so I had to. It's unwritten law that you don't hit women and children. I kept that punk in floor until police came. I didn't hit him, just keep him in floor. If I had hit him, I would be in court too, we have this crazy law.
That's enough court for me for a life.
