**IMPORTANT INFORMATION**
Consistent with Governor Newsom’s “Beyond the Blueprint” plan, the Superior Court of Alameda County (Court) has reopened all courthouses to the public and restored additional in-person services beginning June 15, 2021.
If you have been summonsed for jury duty, please report as directed. You may check your reporting instructions using any of the following methods:

Thank you to all jurors for your service. Please be assured that the Court is continuing to take steps to ensure the health and safety of all who come to court by following public health guidance and Cal/OSHA regulations.
All visitors will also be required to self-screen by reviewing a health screening survey. Do not enter court facilities if you have answered “yes” to any of the questions in the health screening survey.
Consistent with the July 16, 2021, recommendation of the Alameda County Public Health Officer, all persons entering any court facility including for jury duty are required to wear a compliant face covering over their nose and mouth, regardless of their vaccination status. A compliant face covering is a surgical or double layered mask or an N95 respirator. All other face coverings including bandanas, gators, balaclavas, single layer masks and anything with a vent are not permitted. Should you need a compliant face covering, one will be provided.
The right to a trial by jury is the privilege of every person in the United States, whether or not that person is a citizen. This cherished right is guaranteed by both the U.S. and California Constitutions. Jury trials cannot be held unless people - citizens of the state in which the trial is held - are willing to perform their civic duty. Jurors are essential to the administration of justice.
