[quote=Anonymous]I can't speak for DC, but I was able to defer in Montgomery County to a specific date. I remember calling, rescheduling on the phone to a different date, and having no issues. I can't remember what I had going on but I remember the initial date being the worst date possible. The one thing I do remember when I showed up for jury duty is there are no excuses ...people had sick relatives, childcare, job, etc. and really nothing was a valid excuse not to serve. You could defer, figure out whatever arrangement you needed to, and show up on the deferral date end of story. If DC isn't willing to let you defer and you get called 2 years on the nose to serve, I would seriously consider moving. Whatever the benefits you are getting living in DC, you need to weigh this cost and decide if it's worth it.[/quote]
