Proposed Motion:
Move City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 5789, approving the Intergovernmental agreement between the City of Chandler, on behalf of its Municipal Court, and the Superior Court of Arizona in Maricopa County for Jury Services.
Background/Discussion
Chandler Municipal Court is the Judicial Branch of the Chandler city government and is also part of the Arizona Judicial System. The Court relies on Maricopa County Superior Court to identify jurors for its jury trials, including the formation and summoning of jurors in accordance with Arizona Revised Statute (ARS) 22-425 and ARS 22-426 Jury Trials.
This request is to establish a new agreement for Jury Services for the time period of July 1, 2024, until June 30, 2026, with an optional renewal of (4) four additional two-year terms, to expire no later than June 30, 2034. The City of Chandler has in the past entered into IGA's for Jury Services with Maricopa County Superior Court, with the latest expiring on June 30, 2024.
The fiscal impact of this item is estimated at $8,000 per year at the rate of $2.90 per summons; the Court has an existing budget appropriation for jury fees.
