Persons who are over 70 years of age may request a permanent exemption from jury duty.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Only if they have served before

Answer: (A)

Age-based exemptions are commonly provided so that older adults aren’t burdened by ongoing jury service. Being over a certain age, like 70, often allows a person to request a permanent exemption from jury duty, and the request is typically granted, meaning they won’t be called again. This reflects a policy view that long-term service is not required once that age threshold is reached. The other options would misstate how these exemptions work: it isn’t universally false, not unspecified, or restricted to those who have already served. Check local rules for exact procedures, but the idea that someone over 70 may request a permanent exemption is the correct understanding.
