As always, technology moves faster than most people and agencies, says Charles G. Perreaud, Jury Commissioner of the New York State Courts in Monroe County, for nearly 30 years. Times have changed and technology has provided many ways to include more citizens in the exercise of our civic responsibilities, with pride and dignity.

Charles, will share information regarding how the county accommodates the needs of the jury pool and what to expect when reporting for jury duty. He will also tell us what to do if we have questions or concerns about jury duty in general.​
