LR47.2. Jury Cost Assessment.

Counsel shall inform the court immediately when a case set for trial has been settled or otherwise resolved.

When a civil case set for jury trial is settled or otherwise disposed of, counsel shall notify the court least one (1) full business day before the date on which the trial is set to begin; otherwise, juror costs, including service fees, mileage, and per diem, may be assessed equally against the parties and their counsel or otherwise assessed as directed by the court, except for good cause shown. When a continuance of a case is applied for on the day set for trial and granted by the court without a finding of good cause, the payment of juror costs by the party applying for the continuance may be one of the conditions of the continuance.
