Jury duty for a different county?

Question

My driver's license is from county A. I got a summons from county B. I go to college and live in an apartment in county B, but will be graduating in a year and moving back to county A. I do not understand how county B obtained my information, because I never signed up to vote in county B. If I got a summons in county A, I would feel more obligated to show up for jury duty, because of my driver's license. However, I should not be registered as a voter so how can the court call me for jury duty? Thanks.

I was on vacation and found a summons in my mail in county B. I missed the jury date while away.

Answer 1

Different counties countries cities use different methods to select prospective jurors.

Where you receive mail, work, go to school, pay taxes, register for something, pay bills, have a residence.

The issue should be whether you have an obligation to be a citizen, or do civic responsiblities wherever you are.  Contact the court that issued the jury summons.  Explain that you did not get your mail while you were on vacation, that you are not a permanent resident of the county, find out what your legal obligations are, get it settled.  Do not ignore this.  There could be a warrant out for your arrest right now for ignoring the jury summons while it sat in your mail waiting for you to return from vacation.
