| Description | Source: Obama to skip jury duty in Chicago suburbs
BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. (AP) — A White House official says President Barack Obama will be skipping jury duty after being summoned in Illinois.
The administration official confirmed to The Associated Press on Sunday that the president alerted the court weeks ago that he won't be able to make it. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to speak publicly.
Obama was summoned for jury duty at the Bridgeview courthouse in suburban Chicago starting Monday. The summons had arrived at the Obama home on Chicago's South Side.
With his first State of the Union speech set for Wednesday, Obama has a busy week ahead.
The president is a graduate of Harvard Law School and a former professor at the University of Chicago Law School. |
