Which term refers to a summons that commands the appearance of a person to attend court for potential jury selection?

• A. Writ of Sequestration
• B. Subpoena Duces Tecum
• C. Juror Summons
• D. Writ of Attachment

Answer: (C)

A juror summons is the official notice that directs a person to report for jury service and be considered for selection. This summons is specifically for appearing in court to potentially serve on a jury, not to testify or to produce documents, and it isn’t a writ that targets property or sequesters anyone.

Other legal orders serve different purposes: a subpoena duces Tecum requires appearance plus the production of documents or records; a writ of attachment seizes or secures property; a writ of sequestration is used to isolate jurors or the court’s proceedings to prevent outside influence. Because the question describes an order commanding appearance for possible jury selection, the term that fits precisely is juror summons.
