January 26, 2026 jury service is being delayed due to possibility of inclement weather. Jurors please report to courtroom 1 of the Blount County Courthouse on Tuesday January 27, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. weather permitting.

Thank you!

Good morning all! PSA: we do not contact you ever and ask for money for failing to appear for jury service. We will never require you to pay anything at anytime to do with jury service! We normally never initiate contact with anyone regarding payment of fines, cost etc and certainly not jury service. Please do not fall for the scam when someone calls and says you must pay them money for missing jury duty. Most recently a lady paid $500 and the scammer told her that my office would reimburse her if she came and presented me with the bar code. That simply is a scam. If you ever have a question about the call and they mention my office please call my office at 205-973-0499 to verify. This would apply to any county across our state. My office number is 205-973-0499. January is when scammers are extremely busy. Please beware! Please share this post to help friends and family avoid this costly mistake.
Thank you!
