My jury duty request to be excused got denied. Help!

My request to be excused from jury duty got denied.

I’m panicked. I don’t get it. I said I have sz and severe anxiety. Can’t even get to the courthouse because I can’t drive on busy streets.

I’m ■■■■■■. I am going to be thrown in jail.

Get a doctors note stating that you have SZ
They probably want proof

Do I email to them you think? I had to fill out an online form.

There was no spot to attach a dr note

Did you give them an actual letter from your doctor? :pig::pig::pig:

But did you tell them that you are diagnosed with schizophrenia?

You’ll need a note from your doctor

Believe me, you are exempt from serving as a juror

I had no chance. I had to fill out an online application. It’s all online nowadays.

I did tell them I had sz yes

You need to mail a letter from your doctor to the court house. You should call to make sure you send it to the right department. :tropical_fish::tropical_fish::tropical_fish:

You still have to go through jury selection. That’s the part where I get filtered out.

If you have an online way to reach your doctor (like myChart) send a note to your doctor. If not, call or go to the office. Ask the doctor to write a letter for you to be excused from jury duty. Give the doctor your jury identification number along with any fax and email addresses that the online document said you could send proof to. Your doctor should be able to handle everything for you.

You need to get a hold of the Clerk of Court. :+1::+1::+1:

I told them when i was picked for jury duty that i sometimes hear voices that tell me what to do and that, in all likelihood, any local judge has probably committed me in the past and would be biased. Yeah…NOT chosen! Just get your pdoc to send a letter to the clerk of court…

There.must be a way to send them a dr note so you do not need to show up. Give them a call and find out. If it is too close to the date, you may just need to bring dr note in person

Thanks everyone.

I got a note in a email from my therapist saying I could not do jury duty. It’s in a pdf file.

I sent off that note to the proper court employee

My husband is looking at having to take time off of work for this.

I’m s o worried

I feel like they’re spying on me right now
