Jury Service - jury_service
Juvenile and family law trials do not have juries.
How did you get my name?
All potential jurors are selected at random from lists. Courts use Department of Motor Vehicles, voter registration, and state tax filer lists.
Will staff of the jury manager’s office ask me for financial or personal information?
No. Staff of the superior courts will never ask past or prospective jurors for personal information like financial history, credit card numbers, bank account numbers, or Social Security numbers. Do not provide this type of information to anyone claiming to be associated with the courts, and contact your local jury office if you receive this type of request. If you receive a telephone call, an e-mail or other form of electronic communication from someone identifying himself or herself as a court employee and requesting your personal information, you may be the victim of a jury fraud scam. Please do not provide any information and immediately contact the fraud unit of your local police department and the jury office of your local court.
Why do I always get summoned but other people don't?
Selection is random. If you have already responded to a summons or have served in the past 12 months, contact your local jury office. Explain to the staff person that you have been summoned twice in 12 months. It is important for you to contact the court to resolve the problem.
What if I have never been summoned but am interested in serving?
Jurors are summoned randomly from countywide lists maintained by the Department of Motor Vehicles, the Franchise Tax Board's state tax filers, and the local registrar of voters. Inclusion on the list of eligible jurors does not guarantee that you will be immediately selected for jury service. If you have not been selected, you may want to contact the Department of Motor Vehicles, the Franchise Tax Board, and/or your local registrar of voters to update your mailing address. Further questions should be directed to your local court.
What if I do not speak English?
You do not need to speak perfect English to serve as a juror. The court uses common, everyday language that people can understand. The work done by the courts affects all people, so it is important that all communities be a part of our justice system.

CalPERS PERSpective
<h2>Myth 1 — My retirement benefit will increase indefinitely with age.</h2>
<p><strong>Fact:</strong> Pension payments are calculated using a retirement formula based on years of service credit, age at retirement, and final compensation. All retirement formulas have a maximum benefit factor or “age factor,” ranging from age 50 to age 67. Once you reach the maximum age factor, your pension stops increasing unless you’re still working and earning more years of service.</p>
<h2>Myth 2 — There’s no time frame to submit my retirement application.</h2>
<p><strong>Fact:</strong> Once you’re eligible to retire, CalPERS notifies you of your eligibility, but we don’t tell you when to retire. If you submit your application more than nine months after you stop working for a CalPERS employer, or retire from a reciprocal system, your retirement date can be no earlier than the first day of the month we receive your application.</p>
<p>Not applying within this time frame can also affect your eligibility for retiree health and/or dental benefits, as well as the possibility of not having any unused sick leave used in your pension calculation, if your employer contracts for this benefit.</p>
<h2>Myth 3 — If I work for two CalPERS employers, but only one of them reports payroll and service credit to CalPERS, I only have to stop working from the employer reporting to CalPERS when I’m ready to retire.</h2>
<p><strong>Fact:</strong> To be eligible to retire, you must stop working from all CalPERS employment, including all full-time, part-time, and overtime positions and any elected or appointed positions, even if the position is not being reported to CalPERS. If you work continuously in a position, even if it’s not being reported to CalPERS, you could be unlawfully employed and be required to change your retirement date and repay CalPERS for pension payments you received.</p>
<h2>Myth 4 — My highest salary earned during my CalPERS-covered employment will be used to calculate my retirement benefits.</h2>
Responding to Unemployment Insurance Claim Notices
This is the second opportunity for the last employer and the first opportunity for base period employers (who were not the last employer) to provide eligibility information by responding in writing and mailing the response within 15 days from the mail date located at the top of the notice. Employers can request a ruling to have the liable charges relieved from their reserve account and the EDD will determine whether charges are assessed.

Explanations and Instructions for Notice of Wages Used for Unemployment Insurance (UI) Claim (DE 1545R - DE 1545TR) (PDF)

New Employee Registry (DE 1296NER)
This form is mailed to employers to gather information about a new employee who may also be collecting UI benefits. The EDD needs to verify the start work date (not the hire date if it is different from the start work date) of the new employee to cross reference it to weeks when UI benefits were claimed. The information provided by employers prevents potential overpayments for claimants. More importantly, it protects the employer’s reserve account for being liable for benefits after a claimant has returned to work. Employers are required to respond within 10 days of receipt.
View a sample of the DE 1296NER (PDF)
Benefit Audit (DE 1296B)
This form is mailed to employers who reported wages in a week for which claimants also received UI benefits. As part of the audit process, EDD requests wage information for specific weeks that claimants may have worked then uses the information to identify claimants who may have improperly received benefits for those weeks. Claimants who failed to report earnings while collecting benefits are liable for an overpayment. Employers are required to respond within 10 days of receipt.
View a sample of the DE 1296B (PDF)
Request for Additional Information (DE 1326ER)
This form is mailed to employers to verify information provided by the claimant when a UI claim is filed. The EDD is attempting to confirm the identity of the claimant.

Request for Additional Information (DE 1326ER)
This form is mailed to employers to verify information provided by the claimant when a UI claim is filed. The EDD is attempting to confirm the identity of the claimant. Employers do not have to complete the form if the information is correct, the claimant is no longer working for them and there is no reason to suspect the information provided is fraudulent. Employers who do respond must complete the form and mail it back within 10 days from the mail date located at the top of the form.

California Rules of Court: Title Five Rules
(1)  The research, evaluation, or study includes a sound method for the appropriate protection of the confidentiality of an individual whose juvenile delinquency case file is accessed for this purpose. In considering whether a method is sound, the court must have information on:
(A)  The names and qualifications of any nonprobation personnel who will have access to personally identifying information as defined in Civil Code section 1798.79.8(b);
(B)  Procedures to mask personally identifying information that is shared electronically; and
(C)  Data security protocols to ensure that access to the information is limited to those people authorized by the court.
(2)  No further release, dissemination, or publication of personally identifying information by the probation department or a program evaluator, researcher, or research organization that is retained by the probation department will take place for research or evaluation purposes.
(3)  The disclosure requirements of section 10850 are met if any dependency information in a delinquency file may be disclosed.
(4)  A date for destruction of records containing personally identifying information in the possession of nonprobation department personnel has been set to prevent inappropriate disclosure of the records.
If the information is being released for human subject research as defined in 45 Code of Federal Regulations part 46, the probation department must provide notice to the office of the public defender 30 days before the court authorizes the release of the information so that the office has an opportunity to file an objection to the release with the court. If such an objection is filed within the 30 day period the court must set a hearing on the objection within 30 days of the filing of the objection to consider the objection and make a determination on whether and how release of information should be accomplished. Upon receiving authorization, but prior to the release of information, the probation department must enter into a formal agreement with the entity or entities conducting the research that specifies what may and may not be done with the information disclosed.

Jury Info | Superior Court of California | County of Tulare
For example, a juror who is related to or employed by one of the parties in the case may be excused for cause. There is no limit to the number of such challenges which may be exercised.
Peremptory: Parties to each side of an action are allowed a certain number of challenges for which no reason need be stated. These are called peremptory challenges. They may be exercised by each side asking the judge to excuse a particular juror. If a juror is excused, this fact does not imply a negative reflection, nor does it mean the juror is not competent in any way. It frequently happens that a prospective juror will be excused in one case, or in a certain type of case, and yet be accepted in others. The number of peremptory challenges has been established by the legislature.
The process of questioning and excusing jurors will continue until twelve persons are accepted as jurors. Alternate jurors may also be selected. In the jurors rests the faith and confidence of the judge and the lawyers that they are qualified to decide, impartially and intelligently, the issues of fact in the case. When the selection of the jury is completed, the following agreement is obtained from the jurors:
"Do you, and each of you, understand and agree that you will well and truly try the case now pending before this court, and render a true verdict according only to the evidence presented to you and to the instructions of the court?"
The agreement you make as a juror to try the case is neither to be taken lightly nor soon forgotten. By agreeing, you have given your word that you will reach your verdict solely upon evidence received in trial and upon the court's instructions as to the law. You must not consider any other evidence. You must not consider any instruction other than those given by the court in the pending case. As a juror, your role will be equally as important as that of the judge in ensuring that justice is done.
