Welcome
We welcome you to the Ziebach County jury system. Jury service is a duty, a privilege, and a right guaranteed by the South Dakota and United States Constitutions. If you have questions about jury service, you can obtain a pamphlet on jury duty from the Clerk of Courts (365-5159). We will also assist you in any way we can.
Jury Questionnaire
Because you have been summoned as a prospective juror, you must sign and return your questionnaire to the Clerk of Courts. You may either complete the hard copy questionnaire you received with your Summons or you may complete the questionnaire online by going to Juror Questionnaire. Completion of the questionnaire does not mean that you will ultimately serve. The questionnaire just indicates that you have received the Summons, and it provides the parties some information about you.
Dates to Report for Jury Duty
You were selected at random from a master jury list comprised of the Ziebach County Voter Registration and the South Dakota Drivers License list. You have been assigned to a one-year term. You will receive a letter one-week prior to when you must serve as to the specific time you will need to appear. You will also be given further instructions on using the web site.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the Clerk of Courts by calling 365-5159.
We look forward to your service.
Thank you,
Michael W. Day
Presiding Circuit Court Judge
