Juror Alert

The Pierce County Superior Court sincerely appreciates all who take the time to fulfill their jury duty responsibilities. Trial by jury is a fundamental constitutional right.  Consequently, without jurors, justice is denied.  In times of crisis it is as critical as ever that the justice system not fail its citizens. Even with the concerns with the Covid 19 virus jury trials must go forward.

Rest assured that we do not ask our jurors to be submitted to preventable health risks. The Pierce County Superior Court will take every responsible action to keep our jurors safe. We are following the Tacoma- Pierce County Health Department guidelines and best practices for COVID-19.

Do not come to jury duty if you are showing symptoms of coronavirus or you have been in contact with someone who is currently ill, or you have a cough, shortness of breath or a fever. If any of these concerns are applicable to you, you are instructed as follows:

  • Jurors not assigned a department should call Jury Administration at (253)798-7782 and follow the instructions on the recording. 
  • Jurors assigned to a department should call the number provided by the judicial assistant.

You will find all the information about excusal or postponements on the home page for Pierce County Jury Duty.

  • Obtain a letter from your health care provider to be excused and then email us the letter at [email protected] before your report date.
