If you receive a summons to appear for jury duty then you must appear,There are exemptions that can get you excused from jury duty such as health or medical reasons,financial hardships and other circumstances...

If you wish to be removed from all future summons of jury duty then simply go to the court clerk and be taken off the list,most states allow citizens to opt out of future jury duty... Correction to my original post has been made because information was found to be too conflicting to determine properly.

Added: Jury duty is a civic responsibility, and regardless of your 'desire' to be excused from it, every case of "hardship" stands on its own merits and must be evaluated and ruled on individually.

ADDED: All you have to do to get out of jury duty is to go to the DMV, get a new driver's license with a new address on it (outside of the court's jurisdiction) and take it to the clerk of courts and tell them you are in the process of moving to that address and to send all future correspondence to that new address. Either they will be forced to pay you travel time from that new address to the court each day or they will take you off the list. It's obvious that they'll take you off the list. They don't have the funds to check up on you to see if you actually moved and if they did you can always say your plans fell through and you decided not to move. It worked for me and you can always get your license changed back again.

Why should you have to work jury duty for slave labor wages while the fat cat judges, union police, lawyers, DA's, etc. get fat salaries and pensions off of your hard-earned tax dollars? The system is broken and one-sided. Why be a sucker?

It's not easy most of the time. You would have to have some serious family emergency (death in the family or illness) to be dismissed or alot of the time if you are closely related to someone in law enforcement, the defense attorney will most likely not want you on the jury in a criminal case.

it is a person's civic duty to serve on a jury, only extreme hardship or illness (with a letter from a physician) may be used as an excuse.
