Daily Call-in Numbers
The call-in numbers can be heard by calling 410-887-4390 after 4:30 p.m. on the day before your scheduled date.
This message is for Wednesday, February 8, 2012. If your call in number is 1 through and including 196 please report at 8:30 a.m. to the mezzanine level of the County Courts Building.
In the event of inclement weather, please listen to local news stations, or check the school website, for Baltimore County Public School closings and delays. Jurors should follow the same closings or delays given for Baltimore County Public Schools - if schools are closed no jurors should report AND you will not need to reschedule, your name will go back into the juror pool for random selection in 2013. If schools have a 1 or 2 hour delayed opening, reporting time for jurors is delayed in the same manner.
Please note: Tank tops, shorts, flip-flops, sweatpants, athletic wear, and professional uniforms are not considered appropriate attire for jury duty.
Jury Qualification Questionnaire
If you have received a summons for jury duty, please complete the jury qualification questionnaire online. The online qualification and rescheduling web sites work best with Internet Explorer, Firefox or Netscape. Other unsupported internet browsers may not function consistently.
Problems with Questionnaire?
If you are having problems with the Jury Qualification Questionnaire, contact the Jury Commissioner's Office.
Reschedule Date of Service
Note: You must first complete the online qualification questionnaire and return to the main page before you will be able to access the "Request Schedule Change" button on the lower left of your screen.
If you are unable to attend Court on the date indicated on your summons, you may request a change of date one time only online. To reschedule your date of service, follow the screen prompts through this online application.
However, if your report date is less than 2 weeks (14 days) away, you will not be able to reschedule online and must call the Jury Office at 410-887-3596 for a new date. Should you need further assistance you may call the Jury Office for help.
Please remember to bring your summons and your parking garage ticket for validation.
