My Duty

We've lived in Utah for 21 years and I have never been summoned for jury duty.

Until now.

At least I have to fill out the paper work for it. Kent has been summoned many times but every time he calls to find out if he really has to show up they say it's been canceled.

Until the last time.

He was selected to be on the jury for a rape case but they let him go because my Dad was dying. Then we saw in the paper that the judge dismissed the case. A couple of weeks later he got a check in the mail for $18.50 for the couple of hours he was at the court house.

Proving, that duty pays.
