Local Rule 54.2 Taxation of Juror Costs.
Whenever a civil case that has been set for jury trial is settled or otherwise disposed of, counsel shall so inform the Clerk's Office at least one full business day prior to the day the jury is scheduled to be selected or the trial is scheduled to commence, in order that the jurors may be notified not to attend. If such notice is not given to the Clerk's Office, then, except for good cause shown, juror costs, including attendance fees, mileage, and per diem, shall be assessed equally against the parties and their counsel, or otherwise as directed by the Court.
