To reduce juror waiting time in the Jury Assembly room, the court has instituted a Juror Information System.
Juror Information Recorded Message Line
Under this system, people summoned for jury duty must call the Juror Information Recorded Message Line at 847-249-5879 beginning at 4:15 p.m. on the Friday before they are scheduled to appear. The 24-hour recorded message will tell jurors if they need to appear on Monday or return to their daily activities and call back from their place of employment at 11:15am on Monday.
During their week of service, jurors must call the Juror Information Recorded Message Line each day after 11:15 a.m. for possible service at 1:30 p.m. and after 4:15 p.m. for the next morning, each day they are not sitting on a trial to receive up-to-date instructions. The information is updated twice daily.
