So I'm guessing you are not in Virginia or Texas?

Most judges are pretty accommodating about financial hardship, particularly if a long trial is involved. On the other hand, judges can be a persnickety lot, so I wouldn't go too far in offending courtroom decorum or lying on the juror questionnaire. I'm sure the employer won't pay for a contempt citation either. I also don't think I'd wear anything that remotely looked like prison clothes in an environment crawling with law enforcement that's adjacent to a jail.
