Jury Service
Federal Way Municipal Court has taken efforts to protect your health and safety. Masks are recommended but optional to be worn at the Federal Way Municipal Court. Please do not report for jury service if you are ill, or if you have a fever.
Thank you for your vital service to our court and community as jurors.
Jury duty is one of the more important responsibilities we have as citizens. The right to trial by jury is guaranteed in our federal and state constitutions for a reason; it is essential that our criminal and civil disputes be decided by juries of fellow citizens. Thomas Jefferson said, “I consider trial by jury as the only anchor yet imagined by man by which a government can be held to the principles of its constitution." “Government of the people, by the people, and for the people” is embodied through jury service so thank you in advance for participating in this noble institution.
