1 Angry Man

I received notification a few days ago that I’ve been chosen for Jury Service at Southwark Crown Court next month. I’m half excited about this (a high-profile serial killer case could be… was going to say fun, but perhaps interesting is a more appropriate word), and half annoyed (inevitable loss of earnings, and I’ll probably get some dull, small-scale fraud case).

As the leaflets the Court Service sent me weren’t particularly informative, I decided to see what Google would come up with. As it happens, there’s a rather useful website — CJS Online — Juror Online — with interactive walk-throughs explaining what happens on jury service and the stages and procedures that you experience when you attend court to serve. It’s done in Flash, and allows you to select the court you’ll be serving (there are about 15, including Southwark and Cardiff) and shows you photos the courtroom, jury room etc. of that particular court, the roles of the different people present during a trial, and so on. Definitely putting the web to good use.
