For example, write something like “My name is Jane Doe. On (date), I received a jury summons for (court date) at (court address) and was assigned the juror number (insert number here). I am writing to request to be excused from jury service because being absent from work would pose an extreme financial hardship.”

Potential for Excusal: Yes, you can potentially be excused from jury duty if you have pre-existing vacation plans. Courts typically understand that jurors have personal lives and commitments and may accommodate requests for excusal or postponement under reasonable circumstances.

You are disqualified from service if: You aren't a citizen of the United States. You'll need to provide your alien card identification number, visa status, or other pertinent information. You aren't a Massachusetts resident and you don't live in Massachusetts for more than 50% of the year.

If you're impaneled on a jury, you should always let your employer know and give your employer an estimate of how long you expect your term of service to last. In Massachusetts, employers must pay employees at the regular rate for the first three days of jury duty.Employers with 10 or fewer employees can withhold pay of an employee out for jury duty. Massachusetts requires employers to pay only for the first three days of jury duty, after which the court takes over payment. It's not usually the full amount you would be paid if you had worked. Under the Massachusetts paid family and medical leave (PFML) law, employees are eligible to take up to 26 weeks of family and medical leave per year. All states require employers to provide time off (paid or unpaid) for their employees to serve jury duty.
