Former US president Barack Obama will serve jury duty in Chicago, a county judge has said.
The 44th president has been called to serve as a juror at a Cook County court in November.
Cook County Chief Judge Tim Evans told county commissioners during a budget hearing that Mr Obama, who owns homes in Washington DC and Chicago's Kenwood neighbourhood, will serve.
Mr Obama served as an Illinois senator before his 2008 election to the White House, and is registered to vote in Chicago.

Jurors in Cook County are paid $22.39 for each day of service.
