What document commands the appearance of a person to attend and be available to attend court for possible selection?

• A. USM-285
• B. Juror Summons
• C. Subpoena Duces Tecum
• D. Writ of Sequestration

Answer: (B)

Juror summons is the formal court order that requires a person to appear at a specified time and place to serve as a potential juror and to be available for jury selection. It directly supports the process of voir dire and determining who will sit on a jury.

Other documents serve different purposes: a form used by the U.S. Marshals Service to arrange service of civil process or warrants; a subpoena typically compels attendance for testimony or production of documents but isn’t specifically about jury selection; and a writ of sequestration is used to seize or hold assets, not to summon someone for court participation.
