Charlie Neibergall—AP  by [Julia Zorthian](https://time.com/author/julia-zorthian/)  ## Julia Zorthian Aug 14, 2015 10:36 PM UTC Donald Trump is [heading back to court](http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/14/politics/trump-jury-duty/index.html). But when he appears at a Manhattan courtroom on Aug. 17, he won’t be on either end of a lawsuit, CNN reports. Instead, he’ll be reporting for [jury duty](http://www.nyjuror.gov/). “Despite running for President and running a massive, multi-billion-dollar company, Mr. Trump will be at jury duty Monday,” Alan Garten, general counsel to the Trump Organization, told the [New York Daily _News_](http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/donald-trump-serve-jury-duty-nyc-week-article-1.2326290) on Friday. According to New York’s [Jury Duty website](http://www.nyjuror.gov/juryQandA.shtml#MustReport), there are no exemptions for presidential candidates or multi-billionaires. The courtroom appearance by Trump, who is [no stranger to litigation](http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/29/us/politics/depositions-show-donald-trump-as-quick-to-exaggerate-and-insult.html), will make him one for six for fulfilling his jury duty summonses. A judge [fined him $250](http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/trump-report-jury-duty-5-summonses-article-1.2273062) earlier this year for ignoring every summons for nearly a decade. \[[_CNN_](http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/14/politics/trump-jury-duty/index.html)\] ## Transcript But I just want to remind us that what they say about women. Not one woman who is perfectly capable and incredibly impressive, able to take care of herself. But all these women that I have fought for, worked for, stood up for, advocated for And wanna be a president for, who may not have the opportunity to defend themselves, who may lose the right to exercise a personal choice, if certain [ UNKNOWN ] of the Republican's were to be successful, I don't want that forgotten. So yes, I know it makes great TV, I think the guy went way overboard, offensive, outrageous, pick your adjective, but what Marco Rubio said has as much of an impact in terms of where the Republican Party is today, As anybody else on that stage and it is deeply troubling and it should be to the press, not just to those of us that have been doing this work for so long. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3999272/donald-trump-jury-duty/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3999272/donald-trump-jury-duty/"},"headline":"Donald Trump Will Report for Jury Duty","datePublished":"2015-08-14T22:36:47.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T10:12:13.762Z","description":"It's not the first time the Republican presidential candidate has been in court","url":"https://time.com/3999272/donald-trump-jury-duty/","keywords":["2016 presidential election","Donald Trump","2016 Campaign"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7259fa75f42f2adf/69885cc62dce0126629e4d15/donald-trump26.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Julia Zorthian","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/julia-zorthian/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7259fa75f42f2adf/69885cc62dce0126629e4d15/donald-trump26.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Donald Trump","caption":"Donald Trump","creditText":"Charlie Neibergall—AP","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3999272/donald-trump-jury-duty/","name":"Donald Trump Will Report for Jury Duty"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Watch: Hillary Clinton on Donald Trump","description":"Hillary Clinton on Donald Trump: 'It's All Entertainment'","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/GDh3tmj2/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-08-10T20:23:44.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/GDh3tmj2.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/3999272/donald-trump-jury-duty/","duration":"PT1M2S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/3999272/donald-trump-jury-duty/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
