Local Rule 54.01: Assessment of Jury Costs

54.01: Assessment of Jury Costs. Whenever any civil action scheduled for a jury trial is settled or otherwise disposed of in advance of the actual trial, then, except for good cause shown, all juror costs, including marshal's fees, mileage, and per diem, may be equally assessed against the parties or otherwise assessed as determined by the court, unless the court is notified at least one day prior to the date on which the action is scheduled for trial or in sufficient time to notify jurors that their presence will not be required.
