Per an Order issued July 16, 2021, the New Jersey Supreme Court has stated that, “[a]ll state court locations will reopen to the public as of August 2, 2021, thus concluding the temporary restrictions on public access to the courthouses implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.” The Order provides that with the conclusion of these restrictions, individuals will be permitted in court locations without needing an appointment or being involved in a scheduled proceeding. With this new Order will come increased on-site staffing throughout New Jersey State Courts, with in-person staff being increased to 75% on August 2, 2021 and 100% on September 7, 2021. However, jurors in any type of matter will still be required to maintain social distance and wear facemasks. The Order can be accessed at the following link.
