What happens after I receive a summons? Once your summons arrives in the mail, check the date of your jury service. The day before your summoned date, go to our When to Report page after 5 p.m. and find out if you must report the following day. If you are unable to report to jury service, whether due to age, caregiving, pregnancy or other allowable excusal, you may request a postponement or excusal from jury service by filling out a short form on our jury portal.
