How long do I have to cash my Jury check?

Checks are considered void and forfeited at 90 days from the date of issuance.   We will not replace checks that are 90 days or older.  
 
 According to Tex. Gov. Code § 61.001(f)(1)(2):
(f) A reimbursement for expenses under this section is not a property right of a person who reports for jury service for purposes of Chapters 72 and 74, Property Code. If a check, instrument, or other method of payment authorized under Section 113.048, Local Government Code, representing a reimbursement under this section is not presented for payment or redeemed before the 90th day after it is issued:
 
      (1) the instrument or other method of payment is considered forfeited and is void; and 
 
      (2) the money represented by the instrument or other method of payment may be placed or                         

     retained in the county's jury fund, the county's general fund, or any other fund in which  
      county funds can be legally placed, at the discretion of the commissioners court.
