Were there any witnesses outside the reporters who can says that the famous person was right there with them on the jury for a case? Why is it those key ppl are missing?

5:25 pm Actually a few years ago I did serve on a jury with Jerry Seinfeld. He and my brother were childhood friends so we had a great time reminiscing about the old neighborhood (Massapequa). By the way one day a few of us went with him to Chinatown for lunch. And no, we did not have to wait long for a table!!

8:35 pm Bill Clinton has also been called in NY for jury duty. Every state and city should enact Chief Judge Kaye’s changes so that the jury pool is truly democratic everywhere…

10:07 pm Matthew Broderick was in my jury pool. When they called his name, I thought, “Wow, there are two Matthew Broderick’s?”…I was happy to see him there and to learn that celebrities were not excused from this civil duty.

8:01 am I was part of a venire including Dan Rather. He was selected for the jury, I was not. It was rather amusing to watch as they asked him his name and what his occupation was.

i consulted lex-nex and confirmed that each juror i listed did, in fact, serve on a jury.
so yeah. not really an issue and not really too tough to research.
