During the COVID-19 Global Pandemic, the 17th Judicial District has implemented virtual courtrooms through the use of WebEx in order to continue to provide essential judicial services to the public.

Please click on the Judge/Division that pertains to your case or the case you wish to observe.

To find a scheduled court date and division, click here for Court Docket Search.

Please keep in mind, a virtual courtroom has all the decorum requirements of a physical courtroom:

• Professional attire is required when appearing in court in person or via video.
• Be prepared and organized.
• Keep background noise to a minimum.
• Be in a location with a strong cellular or internet service.
• Ensure witnesses are prepared not only for their testimony but also that they have sufficient hardware, bandwith, and understanding of WebEx.
• Only one person should talk at a time. Do not interrupt or talk over others.
• Participate from a location with good overheard lighting and where you can eliminate noise from other sources if in the home (family members, pets, loud appliances, etc.).
• Prepare for how the virtual presentation will impact your ability to present and discuss documents with witnesses and the court.
• Your case may not be called right away and may take longer than if you were physically present. Please be patient.
• Making any video or audio recordings of WebEx court proceedings is strictly prohibited.
