Take a book with you and learn something while you wait - last time I did it, I had three days of waiting before ending up on a one week trial, which wasn't very pleasant.

Jury Service and Legal Protection - Contractor Insurance - Freelancer Insurance - Qdos Insurance - Qdos Consulting

Originally posted by speling bee View PostWill it insure when you've had a deferral already? I thought insurance was for a risk / uncertain event.
The insurer agrees to indemnify the income, salary or wages of the insured or any director of, partners in or employee of the insured, in respect of that individual’s obligations to attend court for jury service insofar as it is not recoverable from the relevant Court up to a maximum of £500 per day and limited to a maximum of £5,000 for any one claim.
The insurer will not be liable to indemnify the insured in respect of claims arising out of or in connection with: Any claim arising from a jury service request served prior to the commencement of this insurance or where the juror has received such a request within the two years immediately preceding this insurance and has been able to postpone the effect of the jury service request except in the case of a renewal or continuation of existing insurance arrangements.
