Visiting the Courthouse

Here are a few things to be aware of for a safe and convenient visit.

Court Security

As a matter of public safety, everyone entering a California Courthouse is required to pass through a weapons screening station. This includes passing through a walk-through metal detector and having all your hand-carried objects X-Rayed. Any items found in your possession that are considered a weapon or that could be used as a weapon will be confiscated if you choose to surrender the items, otherwise you will be allowed to leave and return without the items.

All courtrooms, hallways and offices are under 24/7 video surveillance. This system allows our security professionals to observe and respond to incidents in the most efficient manner. Video recordings of a specific incident may be requested for the purpose of further litigation, protection or to report a crime.
