The judge may reschedule a prospective juror's jury service for medical and hardship reasons.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only with physician's order
• D. The judge may reschedule freely for any reason

Answer: (B)

Medical or hardship deferrals are handled through official court procedures, not at the judge’s unfettered discretion. A prospective juror can be excused or deferred when there is legitimate medical evidence or a proven hardship, but these requests go through the court system (often via the jury clerk or administrator) and require documentation. The judge reviews and approves or denies based on established rules, and there are limits to what can be granted. The idea that the judge may reschedule freely for any reason isn’t accurate, since such decisions must follow procedure and rely on proper justification. Hence the statement is not correct.
