If you've missed your summons or deferral date, please contact the Juror Office at 202-879-4604. Failure to report for jury service as directed places you in FTA (Failure to Appear) status and must be resolved quickly to avoid a possible show cause hearing. Jurors must speak directly with a jury staff member to obtain a new date to serve. You will not be able to access eJuror or the Automated Deferral Line while in FTA status. Please note that under ordinary circumstances, jurors requiring routine assistance with their jury service may leave a voice mail (202) 879-4604 or email message (JurorHelp [at] dcsc.gov (JurorHelp[at]dcsc[dot]gov)) for assistance, but FTA juror matters are extremely time-sensitive and should be handled immediately, so please call.
