Summons!?

I'v received a letter from the United States District Court!!

This made me nervous if I did something wrong like a speeding offence.

The letter was "Juror Qualification Questionnaire"!!

This is amazing...it's only one year since I came to the United States.

I really have the luck of the draw.

I'm not a citizen and I'm not good at English.

But do I still have a qualification for juror!?

The jury system will start soon in Japan too.

*summons=an official order to appear somewhere, especially in a court of law
