Zoom Litigation: If you are scheduled for a court case held via Zoom and do not have the option to do so, the circuit clerk has installed a publicly accessible terminal in the courthouse law library. We have a webcam/microphone that we will set up for you so that you can participate in your procedure. This publicly accessible terminal is accessible to anyone who needs access to court proceedings, research, electronic records, etc. Come to our office 15-20 minutes before your hearing and we will be happy to set you up.

Read them carefully. All parties are expected to know and follow these rules. Speaking. A trial is not a free space procedure where people can say what they want, when they feel like it. The parties only speak if the judge or lawyer asks them to speak and only speak to the judge or lawyer. One party never speaks directly to the other spouse in court. Interruptions, sarcasm, insults and insensitive responses will not be tolerated. Don`t start arguing with anyone or threaten anyone.

The judge has the power to find you in contempt of court or to remove from the courtroom anyone who obstructs the proper conduct of business. Disruptive behaviour. While parties are supposed to be upset when they appear in court, they are expected to keep their anger and other offensive behavior under control. For quick answers to specific questions, please email or leave a voicemail with the deputy county clerk handling those cases/areas (see below). I`m in court every day and I may not be able to answer your call or email in time. The Monroe County Circuit Clerk app for Apple and Android mobile phone users is HERE!!!
