There should be a limit on the number of times a person is selected for jury duty.

After a person has been selected repeatedly it becomes distressing. The inconvenience and upheaval of your life for two full months is unbearable. When you’ve gone through this many times, it becomes too much. Not to mention what happens when you wind up on a case as a juror. The discomfort (seats, sitting too long, tight quarters, being lined up in a hallway for a long time while legal arguments occur, amongst other things), cases that go on three times as long as the judge originally stated, the anxiety, the stress, the fear of being targeted at some point - the list could go on and on. All this to say, there should be a limit to the number of times you are called to serve. Especially when so many people out there have never been called to serve. Or maybe, they should just go through every eligible person before recycling names.
