Maybe it's because I have been moving alot, but since moving to WA I have not gotten any notices and it's been over 3 years now.

I don't think i'll ever get a chance. I wonder if there is a max age, maybe i'm too old?

No, there's no cut-off age.

The realistic answer is that you just haven't done anything in WA to get put on the jury duty call list yet.

I've mentioned before that there are about four different ways to get on the list in NJ (voter registration, getting a driver's license, something involving home ownership - I think it's when you get put on the property tax rolls when you first buy property... and a fourth I can't remember), though I'm not sure whether every state has the same system, or if different states have different standards.

One of the easiest ways to get OFF the juty duty list is to move - once you're no longer resident in your original property, you're no longer obligated to attend jury duty in that area. But it can take a while for your new area of residence to pick your name up and put you on their list.

Conversely, there's also a lot of luck involved - some people seem to get called constantly, while other people can go their entire life and never get called once, even if their name IS on the list.
