A prospective juror may be excused if he/she: Has a physical or mental disability that would prevent him/her from serving. Must provide actual and necessary care for another and alternate arrangements are not feasible. Is unable to read or understand the English language. Over 75 years of age.
Anyone who has a strong opinion that relates to the case will generally receive a dismissal. For example, a potential juror might believe that women are bad drivers. In a case involving a female driver, the defense attorney will request that individual's dismissal from the case.
Most jury trials last 3 - 7 days, but some may go longer. The trial judge will advise you of the length of the trial. If you are assigned to a case, you will be required to serve until the trial is completed. Generally, if you are not selected for a trial, your jury service will be completed in one day.

More commonly, valid excuses might include serious illness, a family emergency, or a scheduling conflict that was well-documented. Courts typically require evidence for these excuses, such as medical records or proof of an emergency, to consider rescheduling the hearing.
Excuses will be granted ONLY for reasons of compelling personal hardship. Requests for excuses and postponements for jury duty must be made by electronically using the requested online form, or by mail or fax. Your request CANNOT be handled by telephone.
