A couple of weeks ago, I had a piece of forwarded mail that turned out to be a summons for jury duty in Iowa City. I wasn't too worried about it, since I was pretty sure that Johnson County was not going to want to pay me travel expenses of $.40 x 3800 miles for a day of jury service. So I returned the questionnaire with a note that I had moved from Iowa to Oregon.
Today I received a letter from the Iowa court telling me that I was excused from jury duty. What was the weird was that the letter started off by saying that I was "disqualified."
Ouch! That's a harsh way of putting it, making it sound like I did something wrong!
