What To Expect
Jurors begin by checking-in at the front desk in the Jury Assembly Center. Orientation begins after check-in and covers everything you'll need to know to get you through the day. Wait time for trials varies; be prepared to wait in our Jury Center or in a location nearby for announcements. Lunch breaks are typically between 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.
If you are selected to serve on a jury, trials are typically one to three days. Please plan to be at the Court for the duration of the trial. If all cases are resolved without proceeding to a jury trial, jurors will be excused from service.
Please plan on being at the Court until the end of the day.
