I'm going through the same thing right now. I got a summons this summer. I have a day job so I wrote a letter on company letterhead saying work was too busy right now and they couldn't afford to have me out & had the owner sign it.
It worked, but I fucked up by adding "right now" because they only postponed me instead. Now I'm scheduled for the entire week after T'giving.
So now the other day I sent them a sappy letter asking to be excused saying I'm single, living alone, financially unable to miss work, that I'm sole supporter, need a full paycheck each week, my company doesn't pay time off for jury duty, blah blah blah.
Several friends used that excuse and got dismissed so we'll see if it works for me. Just make it sound pathetic as possible and it should work.
