I wouldn't mind serving - and technically, I am eligible - however, no defense attorney in criminal cases and no attorney PERIOD in civil cases wants a cop - even a part-time volunteer cop - on the jury pool... the judges all acknowledge this and automatically remove us. I always send in a note with a copy of my credentials saying that I am willing to serve if they want me. I always get a note back saying I'm excused. Better than wasting my time going down there and getting excused after waiting several hours...
