I think it depends on the state. In Washington, no, expressly forbidden,

I don't think that's legal unless you're a first responder or active duty

Your employer can tell you can't go, but they also can't legally fire you for going. So just call his bluff. If he fires you, he's fucked. That's pro bono level fucked.

Judges can order compensation. It depends.

And that's how I'm able to get out of it everytime I get a jury summons. My employer gives me a letter stating that they do not pay employees on jury duty and that would result in a financial hardship for me. Boom! Automatically dismissed every time. I just submit the letter through the jury portal online.

Sure. But theyd be destroyed in any legal proceeding.

Id record them telling me that, go to jury duty, and ask the judge just to see what happened.
