PLEASE let this trial be on television; I would use a sick day to watch it if I had to.

Am I the only one that sees this as hilarious rather than sad?

See we don't know the issue. Who is up for trial. You have to be tried by a jury of your peers. Maybe the person was a catnapper.

Dohohoho

It always feels like they find a new use for cats every week.

I think it is hilarious that she went to the vet and got a letter confirming the cat was indeed just a cat. Because apparently just showing the cat wouldn't be enough. There could be a furry midgetsmall person inside!

...And they're still insisting that the cat attends.

"A website for the US judicial system states that jurors are 'not expected to speak perfect English'."

Oh my god, this made me lose it.

Uh, what?  A cat for jury duty?  This has gotta be interesting.
