Jury duty question about contempt
Hello, I am an 18 year old living in Maryland. I was wondering if I would get in trouble for asking not to do jury duty because I do not believe that I in good conscience can judge someone for an act they may or may not have committed under a situation that they were in that I myself am unable to understand. I say this in the sense that I feel it immoral to judge a man who steals a loaf of bread to feed his family not that I can't judge someone for robbing a liquor store. I don't want to be found in contempt but don't believe that I have enough life experience to properly do the job of a jurrer.
