My civic duty

“The Juries Act, 1976″:http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/ZZA4Y1976.html. Yes, I’m off on jury service tomorrow. Haven’t a clue what trial I could be assigned to (if any). It should all be interesting anyway. Obviously, my role will be to apply the laws of the land to the case at hand, and abide by the directions of the judge as to how to apply the evidence. Criminal and civil cases may require different levels of proof.

Going to the courts at Chancery Place. I would assume that that is the Four Courts, but just to make sure, there’s always the “DTO Journey Planner”:http://www.dto-journeyplanner.ie/dtojp/jsp/content/start.do, which really is the best Mapquest-lookalike that I’ve seen so far for Dublin!

If you happen to be in the area of the Law Courts/Digital Depot during the week, give me a shout and we can go for a few drinks in the evening (hey, “Tim”:http://www.mothy.net/mothblog/, “Diego”:http://www.dynamicobjects.com/d2r/).
