“This is a civil matter regarding a slip and fall at a Bakersfield Costco.”
You feel the collective soul of the room depart for the beach. The lawyers speak a language of objections and stipulations. Voir dire begins. The questions are gentle scalpels: Can you be fair? Do you believe in physics? Have you ever slipped? Have you ever fallen? Have you ever looked at a wet floor sign and thought, that’s a challenge ?
“Group 4, to Department 23.”
And you will feel a strange, quiet pride. Not because you saved the world. But because for one Tuesday in March, you showed up. You were the people. You were the state. You sat in the uncomfortable chair, so the republic didn’t have to.
