Jury service while benched

[css_jay99]

So you will be on paternity leave.

Hopefully not more than a week. I wont have minded going for the jury service if it was a couple of weeks later

doing it now in not an option because the Mrs is due a week before the date

So? She';ll be glad to get you out of the house.

FWIW I come from an age when the days I had off when each of them were born was taken off my holiday entitlement.

Not if she goes into labour.

Kids are 18, 22 and 23; so barely.

A couple of years ago a lad I ride (MTB) with said he'd have to stay local while his wife was in her final weeks. His idea of local was no more than 30 mins away...

Whereas I just made sure that I only did day-trips in the last month, that is day-trips all across Europe

You could have had your kids at 16 or 60 so their ages are meaningless.

Or do you presume everyone has their kids at the same age?

My one and only, I was 41 when she was born. Keeps me young though.

I succumbed to the jury service. Seems I have almost two weeks between delivery and Jury duty.

Not wanting to fall foul of the law, is it possible to be on Paternity leave, and attend Jury service since? .......since both involves some payment?.
