No.  Since you received a 1099-Misc the IRS will be looking to reconcile that form with your return. 

 

Normally jury duty pay is low enough not to warrant a 1099-Misc being issued.  In those cases you would enter the Jury Duty pay in the "Less common income" topic. 

 

However, since you received a 1099-misc you must enter it. 

  1. Delete the jury duty entry in "Less common income."  
  2. Revisit the 1099-misc topic.
  3. "Edit" the 1099-Misc 
  4. Verify the form information
  5. Enter "jury duty" as the description. 
  6. Select "none of these apply"
  7. "It didn't involve work like my main job"
  8. "I got it in 2020"
  9. "It didn't involve an attempt to earn money"
  10. Y or N if you have another 1099-misc
  11. Done

This will not generate a schedule C.
