Today, wife received a summons for jury duty in Dallas County, Texas. My research shows that Dallas County has a "one day/one trial" system. If she is not selected for a court by 4:30pm on her first day of service, she will be dismissed. This is very different from my experience (in another state) about 20 years ago. I seem to remember being on standby for 6 months. Anyway, this will be an experience for my wife, the new citizen.
