Sample Letter for Employee Requesting Release from Jury Duty because of Financial Hardship
Subject: Request for Release from Jury Duty due to Financial Hardship Dear [Supervisor/Manager's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to discuss a matter of personal importance that might temporarily disrupt my work schedule. As you may be aware, I have been summoned for jury duty in [City/County/State], and I am afraid that fulfilling this civic duty would bring about severe financial hardship for me and my family. Montana's law recognizes that serving on a jury is an essential responsibility, and I fully appreciate the significance of participating in the judicial process. However, based on my current financial situation, fulfilling jury duty at this time will inflict significant financial strain upon me, preventing me from meeting my essential financial obligations. I believe it is in the best interest of both myself and the company to request a release from this jury duty obligation due to financial hardship. Considering the nature of my position at [Company Name], my absence would cause a substantial disruption to our operations and potentially negatively affect our productivity levels. In addition, the financial hardships I would encounter by serving on a jury, such as loss of income and additional expenses, would cause a significant setback to my financial stability. I am solely responsible for the financial well-being of my family, and participating in jury duty at this moment would only exacerbate our already challenging circumstances. I kindly request that you consider supporting my plea for release from jury duty. Furthermore, I have attached relevant financial documentation that highlights my fragile financial situation, including recent pay stubs, rent or mortgage statements, and monthly expenses breakdown. These documents provide a clear reflection of the financial burden I would incur by fulfilling jury duty. If you deem it necessary, I am willing to provide further information or discuss this matter with you in person. My intention is not to evade my civic duty, but simply to request a temporary release from this responsibility due to financial hardship so that I can continue to meet my obligations to my family and the company. I greatly appreciate your understanding and consideration in this matter. Please let me know if there is any additional documentation or information required to support my case for release from jury duty. Thank you for your attention to this request and for your continued support as I seek a resolution to this financial challenge. Yours sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Employee ID] [Your Contact Information]
