G'day everyone!
Well, I should be clucking like a feathered hen already after so much chicken soups. Getting sick is NO FUN. Especially when the body aches and pains and groans. *ahh-choo!* (excuse me!).
Lately, I hate how my next two weeks are shaping up to be a busy time when I get well again. For now, the senioritis posts are *HOLD* till I get better. But the more bigger issues have come up for me and I must deal with them.
New development has happened. Ever since I went to the court house and asked for an interpreter for the deaf for the next court hearing, I had a feeling that this defense lawyer would raise it as an issue.
You know, it's no fun being chosen to decide some one's fate. But, when it comes being a deaf member of an all hearing jury, what's to prevent a legally deaf man from serving on it? There are some times that I can almost hear everything in a large setting without an interpreter. NOT ALWAYS THAT POSSIBLE!!
Apparently, the defense lawyer decided to raise an issue out of it now. That makes me angry. I'm only following my rights under the ADA law in requesting for a deaf interpreter.
The battle in the court room is set for next Thursday, March 5th. I might have to hire a lawyer in order to defend myself. I will find out more of what I have to do as information comes in.
March 6: Hello to a job interview with PA Civil Service in Scranton, PA. Summer job only. But ah.. who knows what'll become for sure?
The week after that will be busy if I have that court day, then job fair in DC and visiting friends.
You know, being selected for jury duty is an honor. But it's also a public right. It's not easy to decide some one's fate too. Forget whatever you see on law and order on TNT or whatever what channel it is these days on cable.
Stay tuned.
Semper FI.
