Jury Service FAQs
Q: What if I have an emergency during jury duty?
Q: What if I have scheduled a vacation or business trip during my term of jury service?
Once you receive your summons, it is your responsibility to contact the Jury Coordinator either online or in writing to request a postponement to a time that does not conflict with your vacation or business trip. The Jury Coordinator will adjust your term of service and will send you a new summons to appear on a different date.
Q: What if I have trouble hearing the proceedings in court?
Report any concerns including trouble hearing to the bailiff or court clerk. Many courts can make accommodations for this through assisted listening devices and real time court reporting. If this is a concern for you prior to your jury service, contact the Jury Office at 262-548-7504.
