Pursuant to the Court’s authority under 28 U.S.C. § 2071 and Fed. R. Civ. P. 83, whenever
any civil action scheduled for jury trial is settled or otherwise disposed of in advance of
the date set for trial, then, except for good cause shown, juror costs, including marshal’s
fees, mileage, air fare, per diem, and other related costs will be assessed equally against the
parties or otherwise assessed as directed by the Court, unless the Clerk’s Office has been
notified in writing at least fourteen (14) days prior to the day on which the action is
scheduled for trial, in time to advise the jurors that it will not be necessary for them to
attend. Failure to notify the Clerk’s Office may subject counsel, in addition to the costs
set forth above, to such sanctions as may be deemed appropriate by the Court under the
circumstances.
