Mark receives a summons for jury duty. He serves on a jury for two weeks listening to testimony about a robbery that took place and determining the verdict for the case along with his fellow jurors.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

There is no question here. It is just a statement.

However, doing some research we can say that the proper question for this statement is the following: "Is Mark's service in a jury a responsibility or an obligation?"

If that is the case, then the correct answer is "an obligation."

According to the laws of the state, an individual who is summoned by the state to be part of a jury has the obligation to attend. If he or she does not attend, he should be fined according to the law. If the individual cannot attend, it has to be for a very important situation that has to be explained. Otherwise, the state will consider his +/her negativity to attend as a contempt of court.
