What is the difference between a Questionnaire and Summons

							Q.   What is the difference between a Questionnaire and Summons?

A.   A Jury Questionnaire begins the screening process for prospective jurors.
     After reviewing your questionnaire, you may be selected for jury service
     during a specific time during the court year. A questionnaire does not
     mean you have to report for jury service, it is only the first step in
     determining who is eligible to serve as a juror.

     A Summons letter is informing you of the dates that you are expected to
     be available for jury duty. If you are unable to serve once you receive a
     summons, you should write a letter to the Judge explaining your specific
     situation.
