Hey folks -

I am in serious need of help. I really messed up...

I received a jury duty notice a while ago stating I had to attend.
Naturally, I was going to request an excuse since I'm not a citizen.
The only problem is... I forgot all about it!!

I had filed the letter to the side since I had been very busy the same week I received the letter, thinking I would get to it that very weekend. Being that I am a full-time student and have a part-time job, I totally forgot to mail anything, and the date to show up for duty was over 2 weeks ago (as of today).

What should I do?? I am in a bit of panic.

Thanks in advance for the help,
-Pablo

A warrant will show up for your arrest. Try to avoid being pulled over at all cost. In the meantime just write to the letter sender explaining your situation and it should get settled within 2 weeks.

Lol what are you talking about Sorrybrah? They don't send out an arrest warrant within 2 weeks. Just call them and explain your situation. Do you know how many people misplace their mail?

We can't server Jury Duty as we're not citizens... still you have to send back the form. I've gotten 3 of them..
