1. Where does the District Clerk obtain names of prospective jurors?

The list of names that is used to call people for jury service is created by combining the County’s voter registration list and Texas Licensed Driver and Identification records. Names are randomly selected from that master list for possible service as a juror.

2. I can no longer fulfill my duties as a juror. Can’t you take my name from your records?

Under certain circumstances, such as permanent mental or physical disability. Call the jury room at 806-468-5600, ext. 4083 and the jury staff can help you with the procedures that are needed to accomplish this.

3. I am not a citizen of the United States but I would still like to serve as a juror. Why can’t I?

The law automatically disqualifies non-citizens, convicted felons whose civil rights have not been restored, and people under 18 years of age from jury service.
