Jury Duty question. .. .?

Question

I called in and the automated message said I did not need to report.

""

However, they said I needed to call Monday after 7 pm for jury duty reporting instructions.

Huh? I'm confused. I have to call every day to see if I have to report or not?

(This is my first time being called in)

Answer 1

yes you do.

Answer 2

Yes, you have to call everyday. : (

I forgot one day and apparently it was my day to come in, so they sent me this whiny letter saying it was my warning...whatever that means. It was a year ago, so I doubt anything came of it.  

Answer 3

Yup.  That's how it works....You're essentially "on call" for that jury week.

Whatever you do, DO NOT FORGET to call and not show up.  I've had the sheriff come and pick me up from work for that.

Answer 4

wow we're in the same situation.. i called today and they said i didnt need to report but hve to call monday after 5pm!!  and it's my first time too!

Answer 5

The attorney's may strike other juror's which may

in-turn make your presence needed.
