However, this selection method was recently changed by the legislature. This list is compiled by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. From this list, the Clerk randomly picks the names of prospective jurors to report for jury service, as instructed by the court. Also, if jury service will present a serious hardship for a citizen, the court takes these matters into consideration and can excuse a person from service or postpone their service. If selected as juror, the service is limited to one trial.
Most trials are no more than one day in length, but can occasionally be longer.
Once a person has served as juror, they are exempt from jury service for one year following that service. My husband and I have mutually agreed on a divorce.
