Jury trials will restart in Lee County this month.

The Lee Clerk of Courts said Tuesday that juror summons will be issued again starting Sept. 14.

Jurors will undergo health screenings including temperature checks before entering the courthouse. Face coverings will be required inside the building.

“If you are selected to serve as juror, please be assured that your health and well-being remain our first priority,” said Linda Doggett, Lee County Clerk of Courts. “Jurors will be processed efficiently with all social distancing requirements being followed throughout their service.”
