New Rules for Courthouse

From the Sheriff’s Office:

Updated Information Regarding Judicial Center entry and face coverings

Starting Friday, May 1, 2020 complying with the Governor’s order to wear face coverings, the public should in good faith wear a face covering or mask when entering the Michael J. Sullivan Judicial Center.

The Courthouse remains open for those personnel with court related business.

Keys, a wallet, court papers, and your ID will be the only items allowed to be carried into the building during this time.

Public coming to the courthouse need to don their own face covering prior to entering the building and continue to wear the entire time while inside.

Please plan to bring your own face covering or mask with you.

Recommendations of face coverings and masks, how they should be
worn, can be found through the CDC and Illinois Department of Health websites.

The Sheriff’s Office continues to work with the Court Administration, the Circuit Clerk’s office during this time as we respond to the COVID-19.

The safety of our community, employees and the building is important to us while we continue to provide services.

New Rules for Courthouse — 11 Comments

  1. Should wear or must wear?

    I’ll only go to the courthouse for the Jack Franks trial.

  2. Menards in Woodstock this evening had an employee checking customers at the entrance.

    Those without masks were directed to a service desk for one.

  3. We see within women’s entertainment, media, and marketing, a concentrated effort to promote a very particular type of lifestyle. Consistent from the end of the twentieth century onward, this type of aggressively independent woman lives in a thriving urban environment, is happily unmarried and childless, and endlessly navigates meaningless sexual encounters and failed relationships. The most important element in the construction of this trope is the reliance on consumption for personal fulfillment. Designer clothes, the curated apartment decor, constant brunches and dining out. The modern independent woman archetype often comes to barely resemble a woman at all, but does reflect the lives of a vast number of the producers of women’s media and creative designers of products marketed to women – homosexual men.

  4. The governor’s “order” is fraudulent, illegal and not conducive to good health practices.

  5. The Sheriff writes “the public should in good faith wear a face covering or mask when entering the Michael J. Sullivan Judicial Center” and “Public coming to the courthouse need to don their own face covering prior to entering the building and continue to wear the entire time while inside.”

    Shouldn’t Prim had made his officers and staff follow the same CDC guidelines instead of wasting the taxpayers money by suing for the ability to violate the citizens’ rights to privacy?

    Seems kind of pointless now, doesn’t it.

    Hypocrite.

  6. All courthouse security personnel are masked at the entrances, in halls, and inside courtrooms.

    They are under Prim’s control, following guidelines.

    You wear a mask to protect others from you.

    Fir example, you cough, sneeze, or speak. Your spit spray doesn’t hit others.

    It offers little or no virus protection to you unless it’s an N95, because of seal and porosity.

  7. Martin, are in court a lot for defending criminal complaints or for not paying child support?

  8. What’s good faith?

    Is Prim gonna hand out masks to the public or what?

  9. Anonymous coward hiding in a blog makes false claim about an identified person, rather than addressing the point at hand or having the courage to say who she or he is.
