Dressing nicely for court definitely goes for any defendent.
Wasn't it fun, in a way, to get dressed up? I find I get too comfortable in my more casual clothing and when I change this, even for just one function, I feel a bit "better."
I recall teachers emphasizing being well-dressed for school, stating everyone's behavior changes when they dress diffferently. If we feel we don't change our own behavior (how we relate to ourselves and to others), chances are good we change how others relate to us.
One of my closest friends through college was a guy who liked to wear a tie and jacket most days. He had often remarked how differently he was treated when he was in jeans, etc.
I am glad you were able to skip jury duty!

You look marvelous!!!
