Seeing as how its in Wooo-ster...I'm assuming its a state case, rather than a federal (located in Boston) case.




You're perceptive yes, it's a state case. Thanks for the information, hopefully I won't need to go at all but I am of course planning as though I must. I am glad the state cases rarely go more than a day at least. It is unfortunate that they give the notification only half a day in advance (I have to call after 3PM on Tuesday to find out), makes for an unpredictable schedule, but certainly better than guaranteeing I have to be there.

Massachusetts does not allow you to skip jury duty based on student status; I could postpone it but (1) procrastinated too much, and more importantly (2) the new, randomly picked, completely unreschedulable date might have even worse timing.

Todras, I just don't have your luck. No way I could cancel and not expect another notice.
