“A Missouri woman is to face court this week for bringing her new born child to the courthouse for jury duty because she was breastfeeding.  Laura Trickle, of Lee’s Summit, delivered her daughter Axel in March and was breastfeeding when she was called for jury duty in August.  She asked to be exempt from appearing, as she was breastfeeding, but received notice that she must report to court to fullfill her civic obligation and serve jury duty, according to the Kansas City Star.  Those who skip jury duty can be found in contempt of court and ordered to pay a fine of up to $500 and maybe even be arrested.  Breastfeeding women are exempted from jury duty in 12 states.”
