If you are salaried and exempt from FMLA's overtime rules, then no, never.

If you are overtime eligible, then you must be paid for all, hours you work - even if you work contrary to the employers instructions not to work atr home or over an unpaid lunch hour.

Once you turn in an honest time card, the employer must pay for time worked. The employer is also entirely free to discipline or dismiss you for working more than scheduled by your superiors.

You must be paid whether your employer ordered or authorized the home-work or not. But that might be your last paycheck. Work only as ordered.

YES, if you are a full time employee and have been employed for 6 months.

The employer has the discretion to deduct the amount of the fee or compensation the employee receives for serving as a juror from the court. No employer shall be required to compensate an employee for more time than was actually spent serving and traveling to and from jury duty.
