Jury Selection

Selection Commission

The Montgomery County Jury Selection Commission is responsible for providing a qualified pool of jurors to ensure the right of all citizens to a trial by an impartial jury. Citizens who fulfill their jury service obligation are continuing a tradition established under the United States Constitution over 200 years ago.

Jury Service

If by the end of your first day of service you are not on a jury or are not in a courtroom for jury selection, you will be discharged. If you are chosen for a trial you must serve until that trial is over.

If you have received a summons, ask to have your jury service postponed to a specific date because of a conflict, or, in certain circumstances, be excused. You can also check your status and, after 4 p.m. on the day before your scheduled service, find out if you are needed in court.

Juror Parking

Jurors must park in the Main Street Garage located at 20 E. Main Street, Norristown PA
