The Juror Online Orientation is the first of its kind in the nation to provide a fully customized and interactive juror orientation over the internet. This orientation enables jurors to complete the statutorily mandated orientation from the comfort and convenience of the home or business, in advance of their jury service. Through this orientation, jurors can report later on their first day of service. This later reporting time may be as much as two hours. The Online Orientation permits jurors extra time to tie-up loose ends at home, get in a few hours at work, drop off children at school, or arrange babysitting and eldercare arrangements. It is truly a unique service to help make the total juror experience a more rewarding one.
