A young man in South Florida was sentenced to 10 days in prison, a full year of probation, and 150 hours of community service... for missing jury duty. He had no prior convictions. The sentence was later vacated after heavy backlash. The instance motivated some legislators to propose a bill that would cap the penalty for missing jury duty at a $100 fine.
