Administrator of Courts, Regina Petersen, advises the public and the Virgin Islands Bar Association of the entry of Administrative Order No. 2020-0023 modifying operations of the branch during the current surge of COVID-19 cases.
Effective 12:00 a.m. on Sunday, December 20, 2020 through 11:59 p. m. on January 18, 2021, Judicial Branch operations will be primarily remote with very limited in-person traffic allowed in court facilities. Operations are being modified as a precautionary measure to ensure the safety of judicial officers, court staff, and the public in response to the surge of COVID-19 cases, and to mitigate the risk for increased spread during and following the upcoming Holidays.
