Jury Service

[Ltd ability]

Hi guys,

got a citation for jury service next week in Scotland. I get paid thru an umbrella company (so not self employed) - any ideas if I will only get a daily allowance or can I claim my full daily rate from the courts?

Thanks in advance,

Ltd Ability (and understanding it seems!)

Pretty sure it isnt the last from what I recall when my wife did it. But doesn't it tell you all that in the bumf they sent you?

They (the Scottish courts) will reimburse for loss of earnings up to £61 and change for the first ten days then it rises to £110 or thereabouts. I know this as I went through this the other week (luckily managed to get out of it)

They will have sent you a leaflet with the citation that gives you the exact amounts, failing that I think they are or a website somewhere, bit of Googling will find it.

It may be too late now, but PCG offer an insurance policy for this, I imagine others do as well. They will make it up to £300 per day which takes the sting out a bit.

No claims in the first 60 days, though.
