Jurors Needed In Loudoun: Questionnaires Coming For 50K Residents

LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA — Loudoun County is sending jury questionnaires to 50,000 residents as they look for jurors to serve the court in 2024.

Some of the jury questionnaire postcards have already been sent, while others will grace mailboxes by the end of the month.

Clerk of the Circuit Court Gary Clemens said the postcards contain a link to a website where residents can enter their information. Clemens said this process is cheaper and more efficient than full paper questionnaires.

"The jury questionnaire postcard is not a summons for jury duty,” Clemens said in a news release. "The questionnaire process is simply the first step to determine who is qualified to fulfill jury service in calendar year 2024."

The circuit court is asking residents to complete the questionnaire process quickly after they receive the postcard. The postcard will also provide information for those who are not able to fill out their information online.

"The timely participation of those who receive the questionnaires is beneficial to the efficiency of the qualification process and it helps the court system provide the constitutional guarantee of a jury trial to criminal and civil litigants," Clemens said. "I appreciate the cooperation of each resident who receives a juror questionnaire postcard."
