Jury FAQ
Answer: 

Your responsibility as a juror is of utmost importance and your attire is indicative of that importance and the seriousness you attach to your duties.  Therefore, jurors are requested to dress in a manner that is respectful to the litigants and the court.  You may wear comfortable but appropriate business-like clothing.  Shorts, jeans, t-shirts, tank tops and sweatshirts should not be worn.

A photo I.D. is required to enter the courthouse.  You may also bring books, magazines or study material.  These items must be put away during court proceedings.  ***Please note: cell phones, laptops and other electronic devices are not permitted in the courthouse.  Court security officers will screen for such equipment through the magnetometer immediately upon entering the courthouse.  Liquids are only permitted through security with a tightly sealed lid (ex. an open soda can is not allowed, however, a bottle of soda with a twist-on cap is allowed.)***
