I've been summoned

My first summons for jury duty arrived today.  How is it that My name has been changed for ~15 months but they still got it wrong?

Do you think "I breastfeed 24/7." is a good enough reason to get me out of it?

Re: I've been summoned

  • Yes, actually. I was summoned a few weeks ago and one of the reasons for deferment was breastfeeding. Call them up!
  • It got my mom out of jury duty for years - because she was bfing for years.

    My city and county have exceptions for caregivers, and I think bfing falls under those exemptions - check your summons, it should say what will excuse you.

    And I'm jealous. Of course.

  • Should be, I believe my sister got out once for being a primary care giver to my niece when she was younger.

    I get out now since I don't get paid for missing work.

  • Totally realz. They can't offer you enough breaks to pump, and they can't make someone leave a helpless person who needs care - ie, a baby.

  • DH got out of jury duty for being a professor with scheduled classes.  I don't think that would fly anywhere else, but in this town where the university is everything, it does.
