$6.25!!!!
That's how much I earned today for an hour of jury service. Woot.
Got checked in, seated in my assigned seat, judge came in and announced that the criminal case had just settled. Done for the week. What should I buy with my new found wealth??? |

Use it to issue a bill to the state for your actual hourly rates X 3. Call it a consulting fee. Don't forget to add taxes and fuel/mileage costs.

The wife had jury duty last year. I think it started out at something like $1.25 the first few days, then went up to 7 or 8.

and of course i'll owe my legal beagle his 40% too.
FICA - 15.3% FIT - 25% SIT - 5% DCH (Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe, a law firm) - 40% total: 15.3+25+5+40=85.3%.....so i'll net 92 cents..... does something seem a little off? i'm doing all the work, but someone else is getting all the $$$$ |
