Dear Fellow Citizen,
Congratulations on your selection for jury duty in Palm Beach County.
The right to have legal disputes decided by members of the community is among the most valuable features of our American system of government. The preservation of that right, guaranteed to all of us by the Constitution, depends on the willing participation of all eleigible members of the community. In this important sense, your participation is necessary to the strength of our American democracy.
Though serving on a jury can be burdensome not only financially but in time and energy; it can also be very rewarding. Florida law provides that you may not be dismissed from your job because of the nature or length of your service on a jury. Everyone has a duty to serve when called.
I look forward to seeing you soon, and thank you for your service.
Sincerely,
Kathleen J. KrollÂ…> Chief Judge, 15^th Judicial Circuit
Oh joy!
