Warning: Fraudulent attempts to collect money for missed jury service.

Throughout the country there has been an uptick in attempts to solicit money from people by suggesting they did not report for jury service. Please Note: The federal courts will not call you to request money or bank account information. If the Court needs to contact you, you will receive an automated call, text message or letter via US Mail requesting you to contact us. Even in those situations, the Court will not ask for money or financial information.

If you do receive such a phone call or text claiming to be a follow-up on missed jury service at this Court, please do not respond, agree to meet, or provide any personal information. Do not give them any money or information that would provide them with access to your financial accounts. It is best to ignore or delete the call or message.
