Full Implementation of Electronic Payment of Jury Fees in all Unlimited Civil Departments
Effective October 25, 2024

On August 30, 2024, Orange County Superior Court piloted a new process for Civil cases at the West and North Justice Centers, where jury fees can be paid using the court’s mobile application or on-line via the Court’s website. Based on the success of that implementation, the court will now expand to all Civil courtrooms in all Unlimited Civil departments beginning October 25, 2024.

Background
Currently, the attorneys and litigants appearing for jury trials at Central Justice Center are required to proceed to the Civil clerk’s office to pay jury fees.

What’s New
Beginning October 25, 2024, the Automated Check-In (ACI) program will be automated and streamline the process to allow for enhanced public access. Additionally, parties will be able to pay jury fees from the ACI program. Parties will no longer be required to wait in line in the clerk’s office to make these payments. Through this process, payment methods are being modernized and will be available 24 hours a day.
