San Diego Civil Grand Jury
The San Diego County Grand Jury investigates citizen complaints
{Include link to complaint form} and performs a traditional function
as a watchdog over government agencies. (This is different than a
"Criminal Grand Jury" which is a group of people summoned
together by a prosecutor to decide whether there is enough evidence to
press criminal charges.) The California Constitution provides for a
group of 19 citizens of San Diego County to be brought together and
dedicate a year of full-time "watchdog" service looking into
the workings of government.
A new Grand Jury is chosen each year
by July 1. Members are nominated by Superior Court Judges to serve
one-year terms.
