JURY SCAM - DON'T TRUST-VERIFY!

Citizens across Idaho are receiving phone calls claiming that they missed federal jury duty. The scammers go to great lengths to keep you on the phone and request personal information.  Do not provide any information, pay any monies for warrants or purchase any pre-paid cards from local retailers. DON'T TRUST - VERIFY with your local jury office. 

 


Senior U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill

General Case Assignment Information

As an Article III judge, Judge Winmill handles felony criminal matters, death penalty cases, and Class A misdemeanors if the parties choose not to consent to a magistrate judge. Judge Nye and Judge Winmill are randomly assigned all felony criminal matters.

For civil cases, Judge Nye and Judge Winmill are randomly assigned an equal share of civil matters. Additionally, if a party requests reassignment of a civil matter to a district judge after having been assigned a magistrate judge, the matter will be randomly assigned to either Judge Nye or Judge Winmill.  

Finally, in bankruptcy appellate matters, if a party objects to the matter being heard by the Ninth Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel, Judge Nye and Judge Winmill are randomly assigned to hear appeals from the bankruptcy court.
