In Broward County, Chief Judge Tuter on March 13 ordered no new jury trail for two weeks. No public access at all will be allowed during that time at any of the four courthouses in the district. There are narrow exceptions, including people seeking protective injunctions against domestic violence. The Seventeenth Judicial Court website has a COVID-19 page that is continuously updated with further developments. It would not be surprising for the courthouse ban to be extended due to the circumstances.
We are currently working with Judges Assistants on a day to day basis on hearings that have been pre-set. The court is assembling certain matters to be heard by phone or video chat via ZOOM. We cannot assure or determine what will be cancelled or rescheduled.
If you have been exposed to COVID-19 or have been quarantined due to symptoms of COVID-19 we ask you contact our office at your earliest convenience and notify us of same to advise the court immediately.
Due to all of these matters needing all parties to be present we cannot risk the health and safety of our clients and Attorneys to attend. These matters will need to be rescheduled for a later date and time.
