Hours
Juror hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. unless otherwise informed by court personnel. Please plan to stay the entire day. On occasion, jurors may be required to remain available in the Jury Assembly Room after 5:00 p.m.. We suggest jurors bring reading materials or small projects to pass the time while awaiting assignment to a courtroom.
Lunch/Breaks
Jurors have at least an hour for lunch. There is no cafeteria located on the premises; however, there are several eating establishments within easy walking or driving distance. Jurors may also bring their lunch. Complimentary coffee and tea are offered in the Jury Assembly Room as well as vending machines, a refrigerator and microwave. Breaks are announced throughout the day.
