How does someone get out of jury duty?

Be prepared for a lot of "beta" comments.

Your wife should take more pride in doing her civic duty.

Or maybe she could just go do her Civic duty so the Justice system isnt continuously run by idiots.

Tell them in the jury pool.. If he's arrested, he's guilty....

In college when I had jury duty in BR the judge made it known that if he felt anyone was intentionally trying to get out of it they would be held in contempt.

It's only a week, just make other arrangements and suck it up

Everyone loves to Back The Blue until they are called to serve in the process

For that, no.

It's really a small inconvenience in the grand scheme of getting to live under the American system of governance. For it to work people have to participate.

Suck it up and do your civic duty. Seriously.

Call the clerk of court and give them your best sob story. Judges these days dgaf mostly and expect you to be there.

Society is failing because it's smartest people refuse to have kids or serve on juries.

Tell me how I'm wrong.

All she has to do is call the clerk of court and explain that she has to take care of the children due to you being out of town. She then needs to ask if she can be put on a rotation further down the line and they typically will do so.

Kinda seems like she should've done this way before today but she might get out of it.
