Should there be a way to do jury duty online? I think so and here is how I’d do it.

To be a juror, you would need to have a personal computer, netbook, or smart phone. You go a website at a designated time, say 8:00 AM. Then, you enter a user name and password that has been sent to you via the mail or by automated voice message to your phone. Once connected, you can watch the lawyers, witness, and judge through a webcam that has been loaned to you if you don’t already have one that is compatible with jury duty online system. The same loan arrangement can be made for a PC. The loan costs can be deducted from your jury pay.
Why bother? Because of all the time and cost savings. You don’t have to go to the court house, you can be a juror from your own house. It less stressful, so you can focus on the case and not what your wearing or how your family is doing.
