I received a summons for jury duty in the Superior Court, but I've misplaced it. What should I do?

If you've misplaced your jury summons and are unsure of your reporting date, call the Juror Office at 202-879-4604. The Juror Office staff can provide you with your juror badge number, the date you are expected to report, and your reporting time and location. If you've misplaced the summons, but know what date you are to serve and where our courthouse is located, simply report for service with your driver's license or some other valid form of identification.

I no longer live in the District of Columbia. When I attempt to enter my current address on the questionnaire, eJuror will not allow me to enter my new address. The system says “You have entered and out-of-state zip code”.

The Personal Information page reflects where the summons was mailed and will allow changes of address within the District of Columbia only. To enter an out-of-state address, proceed on to the questionnaire. The “Resident” page and the “Current Address” page will allow you to indicate that you no longer live in DC and to enter your non-DC address. You will then receive a formal disqualification from service.
