SAN DIEGO SUPERIOR
NEW CENTRAL COURTHOUSE IS DELAYED
San Diego Superior Court has announced it will not start moving staff and services into the New Central Courthouse in mid-July as originally announced.
The Court was set to open its doors for Jury Services, Family and Probate operations on July 17th with more services moving over in continual weeks.
The decision to delay the move was made because of the need for additional testing of the fire-life system in the 71-courtroom, 704,000 square foot facility…..
No set date has been given to restart the move process although it’s estimated operations can begin transferring services in early Fall.
In the meantime, Court is working on ways to redirect those who come to the new Central Courthouse in July.
