ALERT:

Due to a processing computer glitch prospective jurors may have received a jury summons for a jury duty appearance for a date in March of 2025 (last year).  The court is aware of this problem and is actively working to resolve the issue to ensure that it does not reoccur.  If you received such a summons, please double check your jury duty appearance date.   If the date is for March of 2025, you may disregard the summons.  Thank you.

WARNING:

Bogus phone calls, emails on jury service may lead to fraud.  If you receive a phone call, text, or email notifying you that you’re in big trouble for failing to show up for jury service, be suspicious.  It’s probably a scam.  Visit our Jury Scams webpage for more information.
