You can mail a letter saying why you can't do it and they will consider it.

Jury Duty
I am a full time university student. I am living 2 hours away from my parents home and I received a Jury Duty letter at my parents address. My dad opened it for me and it says i must fill it out and sign within 5 days. This letter is 2 hours away and I dont currently have a vehicle. What the heck do i do? I cannot get home to sign the letter and i cannot go home for Jury Duty. I am a full time student. This would screw me over

Tell your parents to go to the post office and mail it to you. Btw, is it fax-able?

Easy, just get your dad to sign it in your name. (Wink Wink... forge your signature as best he can).
Like the courts really have YOUR signature on file to compare it ? Sure, its not the best thing to do, but in this situation, at least YOU know he is signing it on your direction and behalf.
Email him a pic of your signature or something.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked rfdrfd for this post.

no, it appears the original needs to be signed. They can't mail it without my signature. Today was 1 day...just found out when they phoned me, so now i have 4 days.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked Justin for this post.

I thought you could call them but maybe I was wrong. Since I am in Alberta and we can call...

I guess, but the bigger problem is how do i get out of it so i do not have to appear for selection and worse case be selected as a juror? I no longer live in the same city, am a full time student and can't afford to miss class, and have no vehicle.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked Justin for this post.

I was at jury duty once as well. Never got called in, just sat there for 5 days in that big room with the rest of them. Booooooring.
Get out of it? I don't think you can, read it carefully, the only reasons are medical, and out of country (I think).

Have your Dad put it back into the envelope. Cover up the original destination address (your name and parents address) then write in big letter across the front of the envelope

They don't care. When I got a jury duty letter when I was a student I just phoned in and got excused over the phone. Fax your parents a copy of your student card, have them write a note and send it in.
