DETROIT (WWJ) - People who were summoned for jury duty in Wayne County Circuit Court in the next three months don't have to worry about showing up.
Chief Judge Timothy Kenny announced Monday that all jury service is suspended until the week of August 17, 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Those who received a jury summons advising them to appear for duty will not have to appear and the service will automatically be dismissed, according to the judge. The jurors do not have to take any additional action.
The Third Circuit Court continues to operate under the Michigan Supreme Court’s Administrative Orders regarding the state of emergency due to the coronavirus, and continues to take actions to ensure that the jurors, court users, and the public may remain home.
Jurors who have questions or concerns regarding jury service may contact The Jury Service Department by phone at 313=224-2507 or 313 224-5650. Or, send an email to juryservices@3rdcc.org
