Whenever any civil action scheduled for jury trial is required to be postponed, or is settled, or otherwise disposed of in advance of the actual trial, then, except for good cause shown, jury costs, including sheriffs fees, mileage and per diem, may, in the Court's discretion, be assessed equally against the parties and their counsel or otherwise assessed as directed by the Court, unless the Court is notified at least one full business day prior to the day on which the action is scheduled for trial so that the jurors can be notified that it will not be necessary for them to attend.
When a civil action is postponed, settled or otherwise disposed of after the case is called and prior to the verdict of the jury, the court may, except for good cause shown, assess jury costs, as described above, equally against the parties and their counsel, or against the party responsible for the postponement or late settlement.
