Events Leading To Exposure To The Courts In St. Cloud, Minnesota

Jury Duty: If you an U.S. citizen, and an adult resident of St. Cloud, chances are you've interacted with the courts in St. Cloud by being called to jury duty, at least once in your life. If you receive a letter informing you that you have jury duty, you have to show up at the court on the appointed date, where you will sit in a "juror pool," waiting to be called into court for an upcoming trial. During the jury selection procedure, you may be eliminated as a possible juror, at which point, your service is done. If you end up on the jury, you must show up every day for the trial, or risk being held in contempt of court.
