At this time, the Court is offering online appointments for the following areas: Civil Probate Appeals Court Records and Exhibits This app was created to assist parties on an in-person basis, but the Court will continue to provide various means to file documents, such as drop boxes, email, eFiling, etc. As part of the soft reopening, the Court will be strictly enforcing health protocols.

The use of facemasks or face coverings is mandatory for anyone entering a courthouse. Social distancing rules will also be strictly enforced in all facilities, thus the number of individuals entering public courtrooms and elevators will be subject to space limitations. Persons displaying possible coronavirus symptoms will not be allowed in Court facilities.
