If you want to file a motion, the process is generally something like this: You write your motion. You file your motion with the court clerk. The court clerk inserts the date and time your motion will be heard by the judge. You “serve” (mail) your motion to the other side.
The trial of all issues so demanded must be by jury unless (1) the parties agree otherwise by stipulation in writing or on the record, or (2) the court on motion or on its own initiative finds that there is no right to trial by jury of some or all of those issues. (B) By Court.
We suggest that jurors dress in business casual attire. Jeans, sneakers, torn or tattered clothing are not appropriate.
A request to be excused from jury service must be received by the Jury Department no later than 5 days before the start of your jury term. Excuse requests will be reviewed and decided by a federal judge. You will be notified once a decision is made. You are not considered excused until you are notified.
