Jury service
Each year people are randomly selected from the Electoral Register to potentially be called for jury service.
If you get a jury notice, this means that you may be called for jury service at any time during a 12-month period from the beginning of July 2024 until the end of June 2025.
You must fill in a Form of Return within 14 days of receiving your jury notice. The most straightforward way to do this online at the following link:
If you fail to make a return within 14 days, or make a false statement, you will be liable on conviction of a Magistrates’ Court to a fine of up to £1,000.
You should fully read the documents attached to the notice.
Jury summons
If you are selected at random for jury service, you will receive a jury summons.
This will have further information, including where and when you are required to go to meet your legal obligations as a juror.
You can find more information in the jury service section.
