ORDER RESCINDING GENERAL ORDER21-16
GENERAL ORDER21-13
On May 12, 2021, this Court entered General Order 21-13, which mandated that the Court
provide lunches for all venire persons (i.e., persons summoned to be jurors) required to remain at
the courthouse for the voir dire process. This Court adopted General Order 21-13 to ensure the
safety of said venire persons because of the circumstances that then existed. Due to changed
circumstances, including a lessening of restrictions by the Ohio Department of Health, and as part
of the gradual resumption of normal procedures in the Southern District of Ohio, General Order
21-13 is hereby rescinded. From the date of this Order forward, venire persons' meals, including
lunches, will no longer be provided.
General Order 20-30, which provides for lunches for petit and grand jurors, will continue
to remain in full force and effect.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: July 16, 2021
