Effective Use of Jurors

Selecting people for jury service in Utah requires several steps: (1) Randomly selecting people from a list of adults in the county; (2) confirming whether those people are eligible to serve; (3) summoning eligible people to be on call; and finally, (4) selecting some of those on call to report to the courthouse and possibly to serve on a jury. These pages report the court’s efforts to ensure that every person’s eligibility is decided fairly and transparently, that every eligible person has an equal opportunity to serve, that every person selected to report to the courthouse does so, and that the court does not impose an unfair burden on anyone.
