Hello, Has anyone a letter that they might share used for jury duty. My husband is out of town often, and I can not be at jury duty because we don't have anyone else to pick up our ds and stay with him that is trained. All our family is out of town.

Thank you in advance for your help.

They keep finding me for jury duty...since I'm the primary caregiver and I don't work outside the home, they exclude me when I contact them.

Yes, I think different states/districst/counties have different rules about exclusions.  I know on the jury summons I just got that caregiver for a child under 12 was a qualifying exclusion.

In my state, a jury summons is something that they can jail you over, and they definitely do NOT exempt people lightly...

I have in the past used a simple statement of:

homeschooling parent and caregiver to medically fragile child; no childcare available


they've always exempted me.  In return, I serve if DH can take the day.  But generally he cannot.
