Juneau, Alaska (KINY) - The Alaska Court System plans to resume criminal jury trials in the near future on a conditional basis. Juneau Superior Court Judge Amy Mead, who is the presiding judge for the First Judicial District which encompasses Southeast Alaska, talked about that on Action Line. 'Under the most recent Chief Justice's order which was released on February 8, beginning on March 15, the presiding judge of each district can allow in-person criminal jury trials upon request if doing so is consistent with public health," she said. " Otherwise, the trials are going to remain suspended until about April 19, but the chief justice has also built in a continuing review process so that date will be reconsidered sometime the end of February."
