I doubt if you can use my excuse. I was called for jury duty, went to the commissioner just prior to the jury assembling. I asked her who were the individuals in the case, which she then told me. I then told her I couldn't serve, my boss is the defense attorney in the case. She said, well, we'll just have to wait for the judge to dismiss you, then, I can't. I sat through the video pep talk about what an honor it is to serve as a juror, etc., and at its conclusion, we all stood up to get in line to go to the court room. The commissioner came over to me, tapped me on my shoulder and said, "the judge said you're dismissed from jury duty."

P.S., the judge commented that he thought my boss quite clever for "somehow getting me in the jury pool."
