The Seventeenth Judicial District has created Virtual Jury Tours to assist jurors in better understanding of where they will go and what they will do when they reach the courthouse.  The Virtual Jury Tours explain what will be expected of prospective jurors from courthouse security, show jurors where the Jury Commissioner is located, and provide a quick overview of what jury service will entail.  Each tour has instructions on how to use the tour.  To view these instructions click on the Viewing the Virtual Tour link on each page.  It is recommended that you review the instructions to learn about the video control button functions in each movie.  The tour, including watching the instructional video, takes about seven (7) minutes.

Where Will My Case Be Heard?

The type of case you have determines where your case will be heard.  If you have a major criminal case, such as a felony filing, a divorce case, a juvenile case or civil case which exceeds $15,000.00 in damages, generally your case will be heard in the district court.  If you have a civil case of less than $15,000.00, a traffic case or misdemeanor case, your case will generally be heard in county court.  If both parties want an expeditious handling of their case and their case only seeks money damages less than $7,500.00, the case may be heard in the small claims division of the county court where the rules of evidence and procedure are simplified.  To see if your case is on the court's docket, review the following section.

Court Dockets, Division Setting Practices and Civil Case Filing Information

The Court Docketing Page includes information regarding weekly court dockets, division specific setting practices, or  information regarding civil case filing practices.

To determine how much it costs to file a case, review the Schedule of Filing Fees  in Adobe Acrobat format.  Please note that these fees are subject to periodic revision or change.
