Jury Duty!!! HELP
I finally got my first notice for jury duty Does anyone know how i can get out of it? Its on California ave, which i heard is not the best area to be in..But honestly i just dont feel like going..Sooo im thinking of telling them im in the process of moving and wont be in the state at that time. So anyone that can help i would appreciate it.

I just throw them out. If it doesn't come certified mail and you didn't have to sign for it, that means "you never got it".
If you're a student though, tell them and they waive it upon you proving you're taking classes.

You get off easy. I get them from the state of michigan everyother year. (I have a mich drivers lic). I usually tell them I am taking care of my ill father in Illinois (not true) and that is good enough to get out of it.

so u guys thing i should just toss it out and not worry about it..I was thinking of getting a doctors note for it, cause i kinda have a social phobia and i cant handle being around big groups of people in a confined space cause i will have an anxiety attack..But I will just throw it out i think, and hope they dont send me one back for a while.

A few years ago I got one, threw it out, and they resent it about 3 times then sent me a final notice saying I could be charged with something if I didnt show- I threw that out too.
Last month I got another letter and ignored it, they rescheduled me for a couple of weeks from now, I do not plan on going.

Just have your employer type a letter saying they don't pay for time lost because of jury duty. Then you send a letter saying it would cause financial hardship if you missed work.
