What if I’m sick or have a doctor’s appointment?
If you request to be deferred or excused from jury duty due to medical reasons, the jury administration office must receive a brief statement from your doctor explaining your inability to serve and specifying the duration of your illness. You may fax or mail this information; however, please include your juror number and your signature (Allen Superior and Circuit Courts Jury Administration Office, Allen County Courthouse, 715 South Calhoun St., Room 108A, Fort Wayne, IN 46802; Fax: 260-449-4245). Please note there are no automatic exemptions from jury service.
