FAQ
Failure to complete and return a jury questionnaire, providing false information on the questionnaire, or using vulgar or profane language in response to a jury questionnaire subjects a citizen to show cause proceeding for contempt of court.
Failure of juror to appear. If any juror who has been given due notice to appear in court shall fail to do so without sufficient excuse, he shall be fined not less than $50 nor more than $200.
When writing a jury excuse letter, directly state why you cannot serve and how serving would lead to hardship. Valid exemptions include being ill or disabled, being the sole guardian of young children, or being over the age of 70. Include documentation such as a doctor's note or a letter from an employer.
It's the law! Virginia law requires that we randomly (done electronically) select a number of citizens (35,000) to receive the Questionnaire which then allows the court to either qualify or disqualify residents for service based upon your answers to the questions in the form.
Among the more common reasons jury service is excused are: Your age. You are not a U.S. citizen. You have a medical condition that would impede your jury service. You recently served on a jury in state or federal court.
Reasons for Being Excused from Jury Service Medical reasons. Public necessity. Undue hardship. Dependent care. Student Status. Military conflict. Other reason deemed sufficient by the court.
The Juror Qualification Questionnaire is an official court document. If you received one in the mail, you are required to answer all the questions truthfully, and return the questionnaire within 10 days of receipt. Failure to do so may result in you being summoned to the court to compete the form in person.
Failure to return the questionnaire will cause you to be summoned to court. Failure to respond to the summons may lead to your arrest and imposition of a fine or costs.
