Check with your employer to see what the pay policy is while you serve. If your employer does not pay for time off and that creates a financial hardship, you need to obtain a letter from your employer stating the pay policy and submit that along with your signed questionnaire requesting to be excused. Additional parking is available at the Wells Fargo Bank Parking Garage on the corner of California and Wetmore. Please refer to the map on the backside of your summons, for locations of jury parking lots. Jurors should bring their parking stub with them for validation by the court.
Free parking is available at the courthouse in their ample size lot.
Pursuant to RCW a person summoned for jury service who intentionally fails to appear as directed shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
