Juror Preparation Checklist

Reading Material

It may be helpful to bring reading material, paperwork or a craft as there may be some waiting time prior to your swearing in and orientation as well as during the course of your service.

Clothing

You may want to dress in layers (i.e. a sweater or light jacket) as sometimes the grand jury room temperature may fluctuate.

Refreshments

Coffee, water, and donuts are provided. There is a refrigerator and a microwave for your use in the Grand Jury Area. A variety of local restaurants and Wegmans are all located nearby in downtown Auburn. Parking is provided for grand jurors when parking in the City Parking Garage. Please bring your parking ticket with you to grand jury to have it validated.

Materials Provided

You do not need to have read anything prior to your orientation or swearing in ceremony. All materials will be provided and a copy of Article 190 of the Criminal Procedure Law will be provided to you. You are required to listen to the orientation and read Article 190 prior to hearing your first case.
