I received a Jury Service notice in the mail yesterday stating that the start date is February 14.

I am a senior citizen. （ I checked and it says that even if you are elderly, you will not be automatically removed. ）

I would appreciate the following questions.


1 I do not have a license and it is impossible for me to drive my car to court.

2 I live in Gardena and the location of this Jury Service is Los Angles, can I have it

transferred to Torrance court house ？? \모듈을 보려(You can get there by bus.) ）

3 Do I need a certificate of corona vaccination ？


I am in real trouble because Feb 14 is coming.


If you have any experience with the above, please let me know.

The Jury Service notice has a place to check U.S. Citizen or Alien
Is it U.S. Citizen?

It's funny that you

fill in the "I don't speak English" circle when I can read that one and respond, but give it a try.

If you are a US citizen, do your duty.

Even if you don't have a car, you can get to your destination by UBER or LYFT.

The one in Gardena is a city court
The one in Los Angeles is a federal federal court
It's mostly felony trials, so if you go there anyway, you won't get picked and it's over in a day
By the way, about 7 years ago when I was called to the Los Angeles one, I backed out without calling.
After that, I never received any notice of jury
You should honestly call them and ask them to move you closer because you don't have a license ？ If you don't call them, they won't start
The reply letter asked if I was a citizen ？ but I didn't know if I could speak English or not. but did they ask if you speak English ？ or not ？ another lie!

If you don't officially accept it in a signature style, it won't be a hassle later. Therefore, we never open the ping-pong table.

Jury duty is a civic duty and you can't escape it.　We can only hope to be dropped on the first day screen （ The plaintiff and defendant's attorneys will exclude the candidates ） from the list of candidates.　It is possible that they will be shaken off for not understanding English.

Some of the people who came on the jury the day they were called wasted their plane tickets to Europe and can't attend the conference. Or some of them were lawyers and managed to get their own representation, or they were self-employed and had to close their stores.　A few years ago, there was a story in the news about a person who was punished for bringing her baby because she had no place to leave it and had no choice.　It's fine if you can comfortably come here while getting paid, but you can't escape this, so there's nothing you can do about it.

You are obligated to go even if you don't speak English.

Dear #13

The court will never come to your private home for jury duty.　Everything is mailed.　

I was approved after 3 emails and 3 calls to my manager saying I am disabled and physically unable to drive.

No, if you ignore it all the time,
it will be sent by signature required mail.
And if you sign to receive it, you absolutely have to go.

This is a lie. You can change the date three times if you call.

My gf circled "I don't understand English" and yet we were asked to serve on the jury.

So, on the appointed day, we went to the court and found that several times as many people as the jurors who would participate in the actual trial would be gathered, and we were taken to a large waiting room. After that, it seems that the presiding judge himself picks up the jurors from the list, and then a staff member comes to the waiting room and asks who and who not to come. My wife's English was terrible （ and her pronunciation was actually terrible ・ and her word order was bullshit ） and she exclaimed, "I don't understand any of the jargon used in court" and was told that she could go home.

In my case, I was once called to a civil court, not a criminal one, but I didn't seem to get picked up and I went home quickly. It seems that even if you circle "I don't understand English" these days, they ignore you and the judge summons always seems to come.
