Is there an age restriction for jurors? Jurors must be at least 18 years old. There is no upper age limit. If you believe that you cannot serve for an age-related reason, contact your local Commissioner of Jurors Office to discuss possible accommodations or excusal.
A motion may be withdrawn at any time prior to its return date by filing with the clerk a written request signed by counsel for the moving party. A request to withdraw a motion after submission must be supported by a stipulation of withdrawal signed by all counsel.
