Er... is there an age limit for jury service?
As of the 01 December 2016 the upper age limit for jurors in England and Wales has been raised from 70 to 75.

I didn't know that so I'm glad you asked - I thought I might be getting too old to serve again .....

Re: Jury Service

Hi

They have changed the Rules, I am no longer exempt.

I think that this is wrong.

It should be ordinary people.

A Ex Enforcement Officer and Expert Witness, with no obligation to disclose this is not a good idea.

We need to be judged by our Peers, ordinary people.

And by the time I'm 75, they'll have raised it to 85!

I think when the inevitable comes, I'll turn up and just act as if I'm gaga!

Shouldn't be too difficult.

Re: Jury Service

My deferral was expected, I have been summoned again.
They don't waste any time.
