Alaska R. Admin. 14

As amended through November 12, 2024
Rule 14 - Jurors' and Grand Jurors' Fees
(a) Jurors who appear for service will be paid at the rate established by the administrative director by administrative bulletin.
(b) Jurors who drive more than 30 miles (one way) for jury service will be reimbursed for mileage at the rate allowed to state employees. If jurors drive together, only one mileage reimbursement will be paid. Air and ferry transportation will be arranged by the court.
(c) A juror who cannot return home at the end of the trial day will receive lodging and meals at court system expense. The reimbursement rate for lodging and meals will be established by administrative bulletin.
(d) Because a juror who is employed by the State of Alaska continues to be paid by the employer, the court will not pay the juror for jury service. The juror is eligible to be reimbursed for travel under subsections (b) and (c).
(e) A juror will not be paid or reimbursed for travel if the juror mistakenly appears for jury service (1) because the juror failed to call in as instructed, or (2) after having been notified that the juror was excused or deferred.
