Log: Jury duty?

[alteanprince]

Apparently I must attend something called Jury Duty. From what I understand, this is a court trial, however I don't believe I've ever heard of a Jury. From what my father told me, court trials consist of proving whether or not someone committed a crime. A judge, usually the king or a trusted ally, presides over the trial. The convicted pleads his case, the evidence presented, then the final judgement takes place. I never wanted to, but I knew, when I became king, I'd have to do this. Fortunately, Altea was always peaceful and we rarely had trials. But what is a jury? I've never heard of anything like that.

And now I'm placed on a Head Seat? I'm so royally confused. So I must preside over something which I know nothing about? Forcefully? I do despise this termination business.

Then arrange us a time and a place.
Even a walk would be wonderful...

How about after the trial is over, a trip to the ice cream parlor or even the tea shop would be pleasant.

A trip to the tea shop sounds absolutely wonderful...
I approve. After the trial, Lord Marth.
Don't forget.
