Question

Answer 1

Well i can't exactly remember the exact details but what happens its the government or people from the court send you a letter via post saying you HAVE TO participate in a jury as you've been chosen to do so. This is cumpolsury if you don't - i can't really remember but you have to pay a fine but the only way you can get out of it is if ur physically unhealthy/ill or even mentally and you have a doctors note. For more information about this go on www.cps.gov.uk (click on "your cps" on the side) for more information on this kind of topic. I hope that helps you!

Answer 2

In my town, a notice is sent to be at the courthouse for jury duty and the date with time posted. Then you go before the judge, the DA, and the defendant's attorney and answer some questions to determine if you would be non-partial enough to serve in that case. Only 12 are chosen and sometimes before it is your turn. I'm 47 and have been called to serve 2 times, but have never been chosen to sit on the jury. I don't know if all states choose jurists the same way or not.

Answer 3

Everyone who is registered to vote is eligible to be called for jury duty. If your name is chosen, the government will send you a letter notifying you of this. Then you go through a process, at the court house, of being asked questions by the lawyers. If they choose you, you must serve on the jury.

Answer 4

the government sends you a letter in the mail when you have jury duty.
