Dr. Apex Posted April 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Ben, I thin I remember you talking about this before, I hope it's the same for me! Paul, your work must accomodate you as it's a public service so you get the time off that's neccessary. I just hope I actually get my normal work pay.

SpaceGhost Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Well paid is a relative term, I think it's $20 a day. My work paid me like a vacation, but I used no time off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted April 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Fairfield county. I checked with work, for the first 2 weeks I get full pay, then it goes to pay minus the $30/day the court pays me. I believe it's state law your employer has to pay you for at least a certain amount of time though I may be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately in Ohio, your employer doesn't have to pay you, but they do have to give you the time off work. I just went through all of this not too long ago.

Dave1647545494 Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 jury duty sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex1647545498 Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 You won't have to go if your work won't compensate you during your time off. If your work won't compensate you then you'll have to get a letter from them and send it in. I've had to do that before. My current employer would pay my wages but I haven't got another one of those yet. I really wouldn't mind doing jury duty. It'll be like a vacation.

Dr. Apex Posted April 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 Interesting, so at least if my work won't pay then I can likely get out of it, works for me. I'm skeptical about doing it but curious at the same time as I've always wondered what it's like to be in that situation of possibly deciding someones fate.

This is exactly what I had to do.....I guess it was easier to send a letter than go without a paycheck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
