Jury duty summons

    Hi all,

    I received a summons for jury duty in the post today. It was the 1 week I was dreading it would happen when I opened the envelope, I have to travel to the US that week for training with work, and have flights and hotel booked since last Friday. They cost 1 and a half grand and are paid for. I really need to go to this as it is important for my day to day job.

    Do you think if I explained to the court people the situation that they would excuse me? I could provide them with my booking confirmations, etc.

    Thanks for any advice in advance
