What if Im a full time student and am not able to serve?
If you are a full time student and are not residing in Lancaster County, you are still responsible for contacting the jury office with your residence information either by phone or by indicating where you are currently residing on your Juror Qualification Form. You may also submit a written request to be excused or deferred when returning your qualification form. If you are a full time student residing in Lancaster County, you may be required to serve as a juror. Please complete the Juror Qualification Form and contact card and return to the Jury Commissioners Office. If you believe that serving during the jury term for which you are summoned may present some difficulties for you, please send a request to be excused along with a copy of your class schedule for the term for which you have been summoned. This request must be submitted within ten days after you have received your summons. You will be notified by mail if you have been either excused from jury duty or deferred to a new date
