Midway between south and southeast I n a press re- lease is- sued by the North C a r o l i n a J u d i c i a l Branch on Thursday, May 21, Chief Justice Cheri Beasley of the North Caro- lina Supreme Court issued new emergency orders about court operations across North Carolina. The orders extend some filing deadlines, postpone jury trials, and require in- person court operations to take place with some de- fined restrictions to ensure safety protocols like social distancing and routine cleaning take place. "Court is going to look different for a while. Dockets will be smaller. Cases will be heard on- line. We're going to have to socially distance in the courthouse," said Chief Justice Beasley. "North Carolinians are resilient and resourceful, and we approach our challenges with a spirit of cooperation and innovation that I know will carry us through the challenging days ahead." Under the orders en- tered Thursday, some deadlines for filings and other required actions have been extended to July 31. • Filing deadlines for criminal matters are ex- tended until July 31. • Filings due pursuant to statutes of limitation or repose are extended until July 31. • Filings and actions due in civil matters that had been previously extended are due June 1. The Chief Justice has also placed restrictions on in-person proceedings to avoid crowded courtrooms and allow for social dis- tancing: • No session of court may be scheduled if it would result in the public being crowded into court- rooms or waiting in close proximity without social distancing. • Senior Resident Su- perior Court Judges are directed to have court- room seating and all areas where lines form marked with six-foot intervals. • They must also ensure that public areas of the courthouse are cleaned throughout the day and that hand sanitizer is pro- vided at every entrance and exit. Local courts are re- quired to have seating and waiting areas clearly marked in six-foot inter- vals, establish maximum occupancies for court- rooms, and ensure that hand sanitizer and clean- ing services are provided. Many of these steps will require cooperation and support from county gov- ernments who own and manage the court facilities. The Chief Justice also ordered that no jury trials will be held until August while the court system works to identify alterna- tives to allow those trials to be safely conducted. • Jury trials are post- poned through at least the end of July. • Senior Resident Supe- rior Court Judges are also directed to assess local court facilities to deter- mine whether juries can be convened with social dis- tancing. If not, they must secure alternate facilities for jury trials. The orders also include several measures to limit in-person contact between the public and the staff of local clerk of court offices, filings by mail are encour- aged and clerks may re- quire filings be dropped off rather than submitted face-to-face at a service counter. Access to public records must be provided, but clerks may require ap- pointments and limit hours. To encourage filing by mail, a 5-day grace period will be provided for docu- ments delivered by mail. • Encourage filings by mail • Grace period of 5 busi- ness days will be provided for filings submitted by mail • Clerks must accept filings and provide access to records during business hours • May use a secure, physical drop box for filings • May require appoint- ments and limit hours for public access In addition, the Supreme Court of North Carolina en- tered an order on May 14 that made changes to sev- eral rules in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. • Court calendars may be published with less ad- vanced notice. • Attorneys may des- ignate additional secured leave from court. • Judges will receive continuing education credit for online courses. Information about spe- cific county operations is available on the court sys- tem's website at NCcourts. gov. The public can use online tools on the web- site to check for upcom- ing court dates, sign up for court date reminders, and pay or dismiss traffic tickets.
