ATTENTION JURORS:
Your jury service is important, and we want to assure you that the court is making every effort to maintain a clean and sanitary environment.

Due to precautionary measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, the courts experienced a temporary pause on jury trials. Although public health concerns remain, the Metropolitan Court continues to take protective measures against the spread of the virus and will resume jury trials on Monday, July 6, 2020.
The Court will continue to contact you via your email address and/or phone. If you need to provide the court with updated contact information, please be sure to do this as quickly as possible.
