The Lee County Justice Center is set to open beginning Monday, Oct. 10. But, the Charlotte County Courthouse will stay closed from Oct. 10 through Oct. 14 and is scheduled to reopen on Monday, Oct. 17.

Nobody will be penalized for missing a hearing, trial, court event, or appointment that was scheduled while the court was closed.

You should contact your attorney if you didn’t receive notice of a rescheduled hearing, trial, or court event.

And, if you’re an attorney or self-represented, and already scheduled a hearing using the Court’s online scheduling system (JACS), please reschedule your hearings using JACS. Although, if you didn’t schedule a hearing using JACS, please reach out to the appropriate Judge’s Office, Clerk’s Office, or Case Management Office for rescheduling information.

If you’re on pre-trial supervision or county probation and missed a mandatory appointment with a county pre-trial supervisor or county probation officer while the court was closed, and if you’ve not been contacted to reschedule your appointment, please contact your assigned county pre-trial supervisor or county probation officer.
