As the coronavirus threat continues to unfold, Chief Justice Stuart Rabner late Sunday announced that in-person Superior Court proceedings scheduled for Monday and Tuesday would be postponed as plans are made to "shift to virtual participation for attorneys, litigants and all court users with extremely limited exceptions."

"On a typical court day, hundreds if not thousands of attorneys, litigants, and inmates appear in courts throughout the state. We are limiting physical interactions in our courts and shifting to video and phone conferencing options for attorneys, litigants and the public," Rabner said in a release, which directs general questions to the judiciary website and individual case questions to vicinage officials.

Some proceedings and essential court functions are to continue, Rabner said.
