Ashland Municipal Court typically holds jury trials on Wednesdays at 8:30 am unless otherwise noted. You will be notified of the trial date approximately two weeks before the trial.  

If you are selected to serve on a jury panel you will not be called again during your term. However, if you are called and the trial does not proceed you may be recalled for a later date. Each term is typically 6 months long. Jury Duty is a civic duty of each citizen.               

Request to be excused:

If you feel that you absolutely cannot serve as a juror, your request to be excused must be made in writing and should set forth your reasons. You will be advised of the Court’s decision on your request. If you are 70 years of age or older, you may request to be excused. Only the Judge can excuse your service.
