Important Message from the Jury Commissioner's Office

CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

In response to the health concerns raised by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Sacramento Superior Court has developed a plan that that puts your health and safety at the center of our priorities.

Stay Home if you are Sick - Anyone who is sick or who is exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms will not be permitted to enter any court facility. If you are scheduled for jury service and are ill, please contact the Jury Office at (916) 874-7775 or by requesting a postponement or excuse from jury service online.

Reduction in Jurors – We are significantly reducing the number of jurors being asked to report for jury service at any one time and will be staggering arrival times throughout the day.

Mandatory Face Coverings – Employees, jurors and members of the public will be required to wear facial coverings within the courthouse. For more information on face masks please visit: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/diy-cloth-face-coverings.html

Enhanced Sanitation - We have increased the amount of routine cleaning, with a focus on high-touch surfaces and common areas including elevators, courtrooms, jury assembly rooms and restrooms.

PLEASE EXPECT LONG LINES AND LONG WAIT TIMES

The court will follow physical distancing recommendations and building access will be limited. Elevator use is being restricted to 4 users at a time. Please obey all signs. Your patience is appreciated!
