I spent the last 2 months out on the road and just checked my mailbox at home for the first time since January.
Got a noticed to report for jury duty on March 16th. Well it’s already March 25th.
What should I do now?
The only thing I could do with what I know was to call the automated system and explain my situation. No idea when or how I will get called back.
The letter threatened fines if I didn’t show up.

place it in the circular file and move on. They don't know if you got it. TBH
PE_T and Harry Flashman Thank this. -
Keep copies of your logs proving you weren't home and forget about it.PE_T, Linte_Loco, Suspect Zero and 1 other person Thank this.

Calling and leaving an explanation at the phone number they provided is enough.
I strongly recommend you sign up for the Post Office service called Informed Delivery. Any day they deliver mail they send a pic of that mail to an email address you provide. I use a PO Box and this is how I see my mail while OTR. You can't read your mail, but you can see if you have something from the IRS, state DMV, etc. Informed Dellivery from the Post Office is free.PE_T, Suspect Zero and Harry Flashman Thank this. -
Say nothing and continue living life.
bentstrider83, adayrider and PE_T Thank this. -
I just went through this you need to Go down and serve a day and it gets washed away
pretending you never got it doesn’t work -
Are courts still running?
Ours have been closed 3 weeks now.bentstrider83 and G13Tomcat Thank this. -
Exactly. Depending on the State the O/P hails from, maybe..maybe not. The fully shut down 5 (or more?) states.. nope. Not at all. Letting low level offenders OUT of jail..waiting for court, atm here in Ohio.
Ours are at about the same.. in Ohio.

Exactly. Depending on the State the O/P hails from, maybe..maybe not. Ours have been down for almost 4 weeks here. Ohio is a 'shut down' state. I'd not worry, IMHO.

If you get another notice tell them you showed up but the doors were locked. Sorry
G13Tomcat Thanks this.
