"The Importance of Jury Service"
Jury service is important because not only is it our civil duty but it is also a very important aspect of our law system. Without a jury there would be no such thing as a "fair trial", it is a much harder system to corrupt, and you have more than one person deciding if the defendant is guilty or not guilty apposed to one person deciding.
The jury system is so important that the framers of the constitution put it in the Bill of Rights in 1791. The sixth amendment clearly states "A person accused of a crime has the right to be tried in court without undue delay and by an impartial jury"(Article III Section 2 clause 3). This should show us exactly how important Jury service is not only as a local community but a nation as a whole. In my eyes this is one of the (if not thee)

Jury
At this point during Jury Duty, about 50 randomly ...most important of civil duties in the United States of America. I feel that taxes, voting, and other civil duties or important, but jury service is important in deciding who is a criminal and who isn't and sometimes a persons life is on the line.
These are many reasons that prove jury services importance. The Bill of Rights are not able to be amended, which should show how strongly the framers of the Constitution felt about the importance of fair trials and the importance of a jury.
In conclusion jury service is an important part of our nation and should never be avoided, or looked at as a chore because next time I have jury service I'll be proud to go!
More detail, some errors
First of all, you could add a lot more detail. For instance, in the first paragraph you said that Jury service is our civil duty-- but why is it our civil duty? Also, the sentence in the 1st paragraph starting "Without a jury there would be no such thing as a "fair trial"..." is saying that the system is harder to corrupt without a jury, but I think you wanted to say the opposite. (It also says that without a jury, there is more than one person deciding on the verdict).
In the second paragraph, you say that Jury service is obviously important because it was put into the constitution. However, I don't think that this is a good reason for explaining why Jury Duty is important.
I think the information is good, and you had a decent conclusion.
