Wear down

Dear Mr Keating,

My name is and I am attending your People Analytics class at the Gwent College.

I am writing you to request an extension for the research assignment we have to submit by the end
of this week.

At the beginning of the month, I have been called for jury service that was scheduled for the last
week. Unfortunately, due to isolation during the trial, I have been denied the access to library and
internet access to collect and analyse the data.

I am aware that extension is accepted only in the exceptional circumstances and that Jury service is
not on the list of the acceptable reasons. I would like to ask you to take my situation into
consideration for extending the submission date for this assignment. I would require additional one
week that I lost during the trial.

I hope you will take my request into consideration and extend the submission deadline for one week
in this case.

Yours sincerely,
