Please be advised that as of Tuesday, March 17, 2020, the Superior Court of Justice (SCJ) is suspending all regular operations until further notice.

With some limited exceptions, all family matters scheduled to be heard on or after Tuesday March 17, 2020 are adjourned. The Court will continue to hear urgent matters during this emergency period. Examples of urgent family court matters are as follows:

- requests for urgent relief relating to the safety of a child or parent (e.g., a restraining order, other restrictions on contact between the parties or a party and a child, or exclusive possession of the home);

- urgent issues that must be determined relating to the well-being of a child including essential medical decisions or issues relating to the wrongful removal or retention of a child;

- dire issues regarding the parties’ financial circumstances including for example the need for a non-depletion order;

- in a child protection case, all urgent or statutorily mandated events including the initial hearing after a child has been brought to a place of safety, and any other urgent motions or hearings.

We do not know how long the suspension will last. If your matter is scheduled to be heard during the next eight weeks, it will be adjourned and you will be assigned a new date. However, we do not know when we will receive notice of adjournment dates. We ask for your patience during this period.

Please contact our office directly if you have any questions.
