Groups Reporting for Jury Duty

The Judicial Center opens at 8:00 a.m. If your group number is needed, report promptly at 8:30 a.m. to the Clerk in the Third Floor Jury Assembly Room, which is located to your right as you exit the elevator. When you enter the Judicial Center you must pass through a metal detector security screening process. Cell phones are permitted in the courthouse, however, must remain on silent or turned off. Please allow extra time to park, as spaces are limited.

For each "month" of the term, jurors are divided into groups:

100 - 113 report on Mondays.
200 - 211 report on Tuesdays.
300 - 311 report on Wednesdays.

Jurors can serve on multi-day juries that would extend beyond their assigned day. Also, a multi-day jury could extend beyond the time limit of the month of the term.

Juror Parking

There is a jury parking lot on the left off of Church Street. If there is a "Juror Parking Only" sign or cone in a space, it is reserved for a juror. Please move the cone to the curb before parking in the space. You will be mailed a juror parking permit along with your summons. The JUROR PARKING PERMIT must be visible on the dashboard of your vehicle when parking in Juror parking spaces.

If this lot should be full, you may use one of the other lots that are found on the Judicial Complex Parking map. Please arrive early enough to find parking and check in for your jury duty by no later than 8:45 a.m. on the mornings you report.
