Update on Status of Civil Jury Trials

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has issued an updated Notice to the Profession and Public Regarding Court Proceedings.

Previously, jury selection and jury trials were suspended until May 3, 2021 at the earliest.

The Court now anticipates resuming new jury selection and jury trials on June 7, 2021 at the earliest in the Central West, Central East, Central South, and East regions, and on July 5, 2021 at the earliest in the Toronto, Northwest, Northeast, and Southwest regions.

All non-jury matters should continue to proceed virtually unless it is absolutely necessary to hold the proceedings in person.
