Is postponement of jury service an option?
Yes, the Jury Commission realizes prospective jurors may have been summoned at an inconvenient time. Our office will defer service to a more convenient time in most instances. Jurors may request a one-time postponement after being summoned. To request a one-time postponement, you may contact the office of the Jury Commission at (815) 319-4880 or you may access the online i-Juror website at www.cis.co.winnebago.il.us/ijuror. Subsequent postponements are not permitted unless it is an extreme emergency that was not anticipated. In the case of an extreme emergency, you must contact the office of the Jury Commission by calling (815) 319-4880. The i-Juror website does not permit more than one postponement. Jury service is an important duty of citizenship. We hope you find your term of service an interesting and educational experience. We have done our best to answer some of your questions and alleviate some of your concerns.
