Hi, wondering if anyone can give me some advice as my anxiety is killing me.
I was previously summoned for jury duty but requested a deferral as I wasn't going to be in the UK at that time and my deferral was granted.
Now they've summoned me again for sept 2024, but the childcare arrangements I had in place fell through.
I've now just written asking to be excused fully. I'm worried they won't accept my reasons. But I just don't know what to do.
If they say I still have to attend, what will I do for childcare?
I'm not from the UK originally, I have no family here and not really any real friends.
The after school club at my son's school closes at 530 and if I'm going to the old bailey then I'll never be back in time to collect him.
My ex said he won't help and the 1 school mom friend I have said she also can't.
I gave all these reasons in my letter, but I just can't shake the feeling that they won't accept my reasons since I already deferred once and they won't care what I do with my son, as long as I attend.
Anyone been through anything similar? Any words of hope or advice to calm my anxious heart?
My husband and I are already in debt and couldn't possibly pay any fines if I don't attend.
What to do :(
