Your name was selected at random by computer from the lists of voter registration, driver's licenses, and identification cards. Your answers to the Juror Summons are evaluated to make sure you are eligible for jury service and not exempt. To be eligible, you must be 18 years of age, a citizen of the United States, a resident of Jefferson County, able to communicate in the English language and if you have been convicted of a felony, you must have had your civil rights restored. You should complete the Juror Information Form which is a part of the Summons and return as directed. Your eligibility will be determined upon receipt of that information.
Every attempt is made to minimize the impact of jury service to the individual.
Generally you will only be asked to report during the term of service as specified on the front of this summons. An estimate of trial length will be given prior to selection. Mileage is automatically calculated based upon the most distant location in your zip code. Zip codes which reflect a box number are charged from the location of the post office. Further information is available in the jury office.
