Common Questions
Many have questions as to what is appropriate dress for court. Here is a GENERAL answer from the MO Courts website. For more specific attire requirements, please contact you local court. Q: What should I wear to the courthouse? A: While you need not "dress up," appropriate attire is requested. In keeping with the dignity and serious nature of court proceedings, in most courtrooms, participants may not wear hats, t-shirts, tank-tops, tube-tops, cut-offs, or shorts. If you have questions concerning attire, contact your "local jury office" http://www.courts.mo.gov/page.jsp?id=996
