Jury Service Eligibility In Scotland

[Arthur Little]

Well that`s cheeky if that is the case Arthur, but you should still get your travel costs.
If you do get the chance then take it, just as an eye opener of the divs you get on the jury.

Admittedly you're allowed to claim incidental expenses, Pete ... but bugger-all else! And ... having a Senior Citizens' bus pass automatically precludes me from being eligible for even travel costs.

Ironically - although I was employed [in a clerical/administrative capacity] at Perth Prison for over 14 years - I had never been inside a court building until after I'd retired ... and then only for the sole purpose of providing moral support to a guy I knew who was up on a minor charge!

But I would like to serve on a jury given the opportunity ... for the sake of sampling the experience if nothing else.
