Employers are not legally required to pay an employee’s salary during jury duty. Jurors receive the following payments from the court:
- Days 1 to 10: No fee
- Days 11 to 49: $40 per day
- Day 50 to the end of the trial: $100 per day (though trials of this length are rare)
If the trial lasts longer than 10 days, the court where the trial is taking place will arrange payment. There is no allowance for childcare expenses or parking.
