Jury Appreciation

The Santa Cruz Superior Court proudly commemorates Juror Appreciation Week, a nationwide observance acknowledging the countless Americans who heed the summons to serve as jurors in our nation's legal proceedings. Occurring in May, Juror Appreciation Week serves as a time to contemplate the crucial role jurors fulfill in upholding our justice system and safeguarding our democracy. Annually, numerous residents of Santa Cruz County are called upon for jury duty, undertaking a fundamental civic responsibility that guarantees the equitable administration of justice in our courts. Jurors, ordinary citizens, are entrusted with making significant decisions that can profoundly impact individuals and communities alike. Their involvement is indispensable to the operation of our justice system, and we extend our gratitude for their service.
 

Throughout Juror Appreciation Week, the Santa Cruz County Court encourages everyone to pause and express gratitude to a juror for their commitment and contribution to our democratic process. Whether through a heartfelt note, a social media tribute, or a simple acknowledgment in person, we can all demonstrate our appreciation for these often-unheralded champions of justice. The Superior Court, County of Santa Cruz, takes pride in endorsing Juror Appreciation Week and acknowledging the invaluable contributions of jurors nationwide.
