They tell you right at the beginning that financial hardship is not a reason
I've somewhat BS'd with it and it worked for me. Said I was 50% or a two income household that lives paycheck to paycheck and that two young children depended on me. Judge dismissed me, which I was happy for as it was a murder trial.

I got out of jury duty
I recently "got out" as well. I had gotten a notice to go in January. I missed it because I had put the wrong date in my phone. My phone has calendar and stuff so I use it as an event planner as well so I can keep track of stuff.
To this day I have not heard back about missing it, I did not call them to tell them what happened I figured they would just sent me another notice, but nothing so far.
