If you received a summons for jury duty it is because your name was selected at random through lists provided by voter's registration, Colorado Driver's license, Colorado ID, or the Department of Revenue.  You must be prepared to stay until 5:00 pm on your appearance date.  If you are chosen as a juror, the trial generally starts as soon as the jurors are selected; in most cases selection is completed on the first day.  The average trial in Colorado is two days for county court and three to four days for district court.  Complete your juror questionnaire before you arrive & bring your entire summons with you.  You will appear at 103 Third Avenue, Hugo, CO  80821.

Anyone in a uniformed position please DO NOT WEAR YOUR UNIFORM to jury duty.  

Limit your PERFUME/AFTERSHAVE as some people are allergic to them.
