Jury Instructions

Updated as of Tuesday September 19th, 2023

         The jury trial scheduled to start September 20th has been CANCELED.

September 2023 your jury term of service will be complete.  Thank you for your service.

You will need to pass through security so only bring with you essential items and leave all purses, bags and backpacks in your vehicle, as they are subject to search, and are not permitted in the Courthouse at this time. 

Do not bring family members or children to jury service.

IMPORTANT: If you have any travel plans, important work obligations, appointments of any kind, or anything that could possibly conflict with your jury service, notify the Jury Commissioner IN WRITING as soon as possible, by using this link. Once your juror number is drawn for a jury trial, it is too late for you to be excused, unless it is an emergency. DO NOT DELAY NOTIFYING THE JURY COMMISSIONER OF IMPORTANT INFORMATION OR POSSIBLE CONFLICTS.

Note: If your number is drawn for an upcoming jury trial, the Jury Clerk cannot grant your excusal/postponement request. You would be required to report for that trial, and your excusal would be determined by the Presiding Judge and the attorneys on that trial. 

If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact the Jury Clerk directly either by phone at (208) 587-2133 Ext. 511 or email by using the Contact J
