| Daily Court Schedule |
Earlier this month, Washington's Administrative Office of the Courts announced they had identified unauthorized activity on the Washington Courts network. That office took immediate action to secure critical systems and work to safely restore service. As a result, the state's Judicial Information System, Washington Courts website and affiliate websites were not accessible, and the Court did not have access to our case management system. Service was restored on November 18th; however, there may continue to be service outages in the coming days due to demands placed on the network. Additionally, the system and dockets may not be current for several days, as the Clerk’s Office works to process all documents filed during the outage. Until further notice, please continue to provide bench copies to the 2nd floor window in Court Administration, per Emergency Administrative Order 24-1. |

Information for Jurors
Jurors are an essential part of the system of justice. The court appreciates the service of all jurors. Additional information on your jury service is available here.
Potential Juror Scams: Superior Court will never ask jurors for their credit card or social security numbers or to pay “juror fines.” More information about protecting yourself from potential juror scams can also be found on the juror information page and here. |
