PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY:

This information is for jurors who have been summoned for a three-month term of grand jury service.  Please read the following information very carefully. If you have been summoned for a 3 week term of service please click here.

After you have received your summons, please submit your qualification and questionnaire forms through the juror portal. The Juror portal can be accessed here. Once you have completed your forms online, you will be asked to report for Grand Jury Orientation 1 to 3 weeks before the service dates listed on your summons. Grand Jury orientation usually lasts no longer than 3 hours. Attending orientation DOES NOT mean that you will necessarily need to report every day for the full 3 months listed on your summons.

The jury division will contact you 1 week in advance from needing you to report for Grand Jury Orientation via email, mail or telephone. Once you have been orientated you will receive further instructions on how the court will contact you when you are needed.
