Robert P. Taylor's JuryDuty:reflections on a trial

Three Jurors reading and waiting

From left at the table, James Tang, a lawyer in international business, Chris Mundy, a writer for Rolling Stone magazine, and Gary Sitomer, a designer, read, waiting for recall to the courtroom. Much of the juror's time is spent waiting - for witnesses to arrive, a point of legal dispute to be settled at the bench (inset left), or something else. Reading is inevitable. In this sketch, the newspaper headline reflects the closing of Barney's, a well know NY clothing store.
