The process for requesting a permanent medical excuse from jury service is as follows: (1) An applicant must submit to the jury commissioner a written request for permanent medical excuse with a supporting letter, memo, or note from a treating health care provider.

You may request to be postponed or excused for hardship by logging on to our JPORTAL website. If your request is not allowed on JPortal, you may need to contact the jury services office for further assistance by emailing jury@alamedaurts.ca or by calling: (510) 879-3079.

When writing a jury excuse letter, directly state why you cannot serve and how serving would lead to hardship. Valid exemptions include being ill or disabled, being the sole guardian of young children, or being over the age of 70. Include documentation such as a doctor's note or a letter from an employer.

In both civil and criminal trials, if the jury can't agree on a verdict, they report back to the judge. If the judge feels the jury has not deliberated long enough, they will keep trying. A "hung jury" occurs when the jury is hopelessly deadlocked.

If you do not go to jury duty when summoned, the judge will typically issue you a second summons. If you continue to not go to jury duty, you can be held in contempt of court. Contempt of court can carry a fine or even jail time. You can avoid this outcome by showing that your absence was excusable.
