Sample Letter for Employee Requesting Release from Jury Duty because of Financial Hardship Subject: Request for Release from Jury Duty — Financial Hardship [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Judge's Name] [Judge's Title] [Address of the Courthouse] [City, State, ZIP Code] Dear [Judge's Last Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to respectfully request release from jury duty, which I have been summoned to serve on [Date]. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and assure you that I fully understand the importance of jury duty in our judicial system. However, I am currently facing severe financial hardship due to unforeseen circumstances. The financial burden I am experiencing has caused an unanticipated strain on our family's finances, compromising our ability to meet essential needs and make ends meet. This includes covering necessities such as rent/mortgage payments, utilities, medical expenses, and supporting my dependents. As an employee of [Company Name], I play a critical role in the company's day-to-day operations. Being absent for an extended period of time would not only disrupt the workflow but would also place an additional burden on my colleagues who would have to temporarily take on my responsibilities. This would further impact the productivity and efficiency of the entire team, potentially affecting the overall success of the organization. To further elaborate on my financial hardship, I have attached relevant supporting documentation, including recent pay stubs, financial statements, and bills. These documents will provide a comprehensive understanding of my current financial obligations and the constraints I am facing. I kindly request that you consider my circumstances and grant me an exemption from jury duty. I assure you that if my financial situation improves in the future, I will happily fulfill my civic duty and eagerly participate in jury service. Furthermore, I understand that the judicial system heavily relies on the participation of citizens like myself, and I hold the utmost respect for the justice system and the principles it upholds. However, given my present financial instability and the potential consequences it entails, it is my sincere belief that my request for release is justified. Thank you for your time and consideration. If there is any additional information or documentation required, please do not hesitate to contact me. I eagerly await your prompt response. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
