Taxation of Costs in Late-Settling Cases

activein force · 2026-09-18 – presentact-effective-date

(A) Settlement Before Trial. Whenever a civil action scheduled for jury trial is

settled or otherwise disposed of in advance of the actual trial, then, except for good

cause shown, juror costs for one day shall be assessed equally against the parties and

their counsel or otherwise assessed or relieved as directed by the Court. Juror costs

include attendance fees, per diem, mileage, and parking. No juror costs will be

assessed if notice of settlement or other disposition of the case is given to both the

courtroom deputy of the judge to whom the case is assigned and to the Jury Section of

the clerk's office one full business day prior to the scheduled trial date.

(B) Settlement Before Verdict. Except upon a showing of good cause, the Court

shall assess the juror costs equally against the parties and their counsel whenever a

civil action proceeding as a jury trial is settled at trial in advance of the verdict. The

judge may, in the discretion of the judge, direct that the juror costs be relieved or that

they be assessed other than equally among the parties and their counsel.
