Attending Court Hearings

 
 
All hearings will be conducted in the Herbert A. Ross Historic Courtroom for in-person attendance.  Optional remote attendance is permitted, unless otherwise ordered by the Court.
 
The type of remote attendance allowed, and the remote connection information will be listed on each daily calendar.  The daily court calendars will be separated so that Telephonic hearings are listed on one calendar and Zoom Video/Telephonic hearings are listed on another calendar.  Calendars to be held by Zoom Video will be designated in the calendar name on the Court Calendar page of the website.
