to be semi-fair, the mail was forwarded. To be 100% snarky: apparently they, like the city of New Haven Taxation Division, only update their records once a year, and no matter how man y times you tell them something the change doesn't take effect until after the next years update....
(seriously, people. When the DMV has their act together and you don't....)
It never fails but that when I move I get a jury summons from my former desmesne within six months. Perhaps one day I'll actually get one from the current jurisdiction and be able to serve.
Just because your Mailing Address happens to be in NYC, doesn't mean that you are living there full time. You could be commuting and just don't want anyone to know your home address (which obviously is still here in New Haven) so you are using your Business Address as your mailing address.
I get called about every other year, but I never make it onto a jury. worse than just being a white male, they see "Ph.D." and punt me every time.
Last time I spent the day sitting around with the others waiting to be called in, and wrote up little character sketches based on random quirks of the other people in the room.
Are you kidding me? New Haven is really something else, good god...
Well, you could always call one of the lawyers a honky and they'll send you away? Or you can talk to yourself about the little green man that visits you from your closet at night, that's an epic WIN of a juror non-picking.
