The United States District Court for the District of Delaware
recently issued a Jury Trial Notice on April 5, 2021,
stating that jury trials will resume, subject to the discretion of
each individual judge as to whether and when any particular case
will proceed to trial.
Previously, on February 5th, the Chief District Court Judge
issued a Standing Order RE: Criminal and Civil Jury Trial
Suspension, which cancelled all jury trials for two months, in
light of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Citing current conditions and after consultation with the
Court's Reopening Committee, the District Court of Delaware
determined that it will not extend the February 5th Standing
Order.
