You've been excused.

You have been excused from jury service. No further action is required.

This excusal is for the current summoning period only. It does not have any bearing on notices for future service.

If the same condition exists when you are next summoned, you will need to renew your request to be excused.

You may now discard your summons. Thank you for your time.

FAQ's

You have been randomly selected by computer to serve as a trial juror at the courthouse to which you have been summoned. We received your name and address because you have a California driver’s license or identification card, or you are registered to vote in the County of Los Angeles. Beginning on January 1, 2022, the list of resident state tax filers was added to the list of registered voters, and the Department of Motor Vehicles’ list of licensed drivers and identification cardholders resident within the area served by the court. The law requires a fair cross-section of each county's qualified residents to be available each day for jury duty. Thus, some jurors will not necessarily serve at courts nearest to their homes. Random summoning enhances juror impartiality. There is no attempt to deliberately inconvenience anyone. Jury duty is a responsibility that all qualified citizens must share.

Only active duty peace officers, as described in PC 830.1, 830.2(a), and 830.33(a) are exempt from jury duty.

No. If you are asked to report for service and are not selected on any case on the day you are asked to report, your term of service is complete. But if you are selected to serve on a trial or need to complete voir dire (process of being chosen as a juror on a trial) the term of service will be the length of that trial. The average trial lasts 5 to 7 days. However, this is only an average. Some trials are shorter and some MAY BE LONGER than the average, and jurors are needed for all trials, including longer trials. Do not assume that any trial you are chosen for will be shorter than average.
