Are the Courts Still Open?
Depending on what kind of case you have- Bankruptcy or Personal Injury– you may have had your court day postponed. The Courts are closed temporarily until further notice. If you have had a court date on the docket, it will be rescheduled when the Courts have reopened. Keep in mind that they will be backlogged and your case will eventually get heard.
