(a) Duty to Notify Court. The parties must immediately notify the court if they reach
an agreement that resolves the litigation as to any or all parties.
(b) Failure to Timely Notify Court. Whenever a civil action scheduled for jury trial
is settled or otherwise disposed of by agreement in advance of the trial date, except
for good cause, jury costs paid or incurred must be assessed equally against the
parties and their attorneys or otherwise assessed as the court directs. Jury costs
include attendance fees, per diem, mileage, and parking.
(c) Timely Notification. No jury costs will be assessed if notice of settlement or
disposition of the case is given to the jury coordinator at least one full business day
prior to the scheduled trial date.
