Reply #6: Here's the letter I'm writing to the judge:

Let me know what you think:

Honorable Judge XXXX:

In regards to my potential jury service for this particular trial, I must once again put forth my reasons for not being able to fulfill my civic duty for the case before me. As you mentioned yesterday, this trial may last for several weeks. However, my employer only pays for my first 10 days of service. Considering that we are still in the pretrial phase, it is entirely possible that I could miss, at the very least, 20 days of work altogether if I am eventually selected for the jury. This would cause me severe financial hardship, particularly in regards to my ability to pay my monthly rent.
I should also mention that my employer would not be able to handle my prolonged absence, as my workplace is currently experiencing a shortage of employees and an excessive influx of work.
I humbly request you to grant me a discharge from this particular trial so that I may be eligible for a shorter trial, and, subsequently, a less financially burdensome situation. Thank you for your time.

Respectfully,

XXXXX XXXXX
