Discharged from jury service

UnKnOwNaLiEn

Hi, I got discharged from Jury service a week early but can’t go back to work as my company got temp cover for the 2 weeks. Can I still claim the £64.95 a day on expenses form even though been discharged? My company signed the forms saying I wouldn’t be able to come back to work early. Thanks

I wasn't able to, I was only able to claim for the days and hours I was at Court I'm afraid, same as lunch allowance only paid when you're there and there for at least 4 (I think) hours. What did your Clerk say? They'd be the people to ask

I think you can if employer has said you can't go back, but agree, start with clerk.
