Hi,
just wondering if anyone else has been called for jury service while doing their phd?
I'm not sure what to do, from the info they've sent it doesn't look like I can apply for exemption. They'll only pay you if your employer signs to say you won't be paid for the duration, so unless I stop my funding and "defer" for two weeks then I'll just lose 2 weeks of work at a really busy and stressful time, but if I do defer funding then don't actually sit on the jury I'll be out of pocket for 2 weeks.....
so just wondering if anybody else has done it and how you dealt with it financially and work-wise...?
I would quite like to do the jury service, its just a really bad time!!!
