There's much to be said for that. (Although I've heard a good argument for semi-pro juries.) I actually like jury duty, freak that I am, but I understand the burden it can be for the self-employed.
the guy was subpoenaed before the judge, appeared there in person, looked meek and apologized profusely. he was let go without a fine or any other sanction, and was relieved from jury duty.
