Walk It Through: The Jury Summons

A summons for jury duty, a boss who objects, an unpaid week, and a job that is protected.

A restaurant server gets a jury summons for the busiest week of the season.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

Jury service and a private job. Postponing service, the juror's own fee and public employees' rules are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
