FAQ
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.
Permanent Excuse (processed by jury clerk): Those with a permanent medical condition preventing jury service (verified by a doctor's letter).
In both civil and criminal trials, if the jury can't agree on a verdict, they report back to the judge. If the judge feels the jury has not deliberated long enough, they will keep trying. A "hung jury" occurs when the jury is hopelessly deadlocked.
I am writing to request an excuse from jury duty on the grounds that such jury services would pose an undue hardship on me and an extreme inconvenience to the patients of my dental practice. I am a sole practitioner and have no other dentists in my office who can treat my patients if I am not here.
A hung jury, also called a deadlocked jury, is a judicial jury that cannot agree upon a verdict after extended deliberation and is unable to reach the required unanimity or supermajority. A hung jury may result in the case being tried again.
A deadlocked jury, or what is often described as a “hung jury”, occurs when the jurors are unable to agree unanimously on a verdict, either to convict or acquit the defendant.
Jury nullification only works if the jury unanimously votes to acquit. Otherwise, it's a hung jury, and they can retry until they get a unanimous verdict. You would only have succeeded at wasting everyone's time, including the defendant's.
If jurors cannot agree, the judge can declare a mistrial. This is sometimes called a hung jury. The prosecutor may or may not decide to try the case again.
Five Tips for Making a Verdict Sheet Clarity: Ensure that each question is clear and unambiguous to avoid confusion. Simplicity: Use simple and direct language. Relevance: Only include questions that are necessary to resolve the issues in the case.
A general verdict is a verdict in which the jury decides which party should win the case, without listing its specific findings on any disputed issues.
