I have received a jury summons and feel that I am not up to serving on a jury do to health concerns, what should I do?

Requests to be excused from jury duty due to health concerns must be in writing and accompanied by documentation of your condition from a licensed physician must be provided to the Court per Ohio Revised Code Section 2313.16 (A)(4). Please fax 419-636-9886, or deliver this documentation to the Court immediately. Be sure to include your contact phone number in your request to be excused. Upon receipt, your request will be forwarded to the Judge for consideration. You are still summoned to appear until you receive a call from the Court informing you otherwise.
