County court cancels docket

County court

Following the guidelines issued by the Office of Court Administration on March 12, County Judge Rick Lewis has announced, “To avoid large numbers of people coming into the courtroom at one time we will cancel the County Court dockets until further notice.”

“We are taking precautionary steps to avoid potential spread of the virus in large groups of people,” the judge announced.

“Routine hearing will proceed as under normal conditions, and will not affect criminal magistration, Child Protective Service removal hearings, temporary restraining orders, juvenile detention hearings, family violence protective orders, and certain mental health proceedings.”
