For those conducting county criminal records and county civil records as background checks for employment screening, there may be delays due to an emergency court closure.
At Corra Group we routinely report court closures. Usually, the court closures are due to budget concerns or inclement weather. But this terrible event is in a league all of it’s own. A terrible tragedy when the courts, the halls of justice, become dangerous places unto themselves. What an awful situation. I would define this as “unbelievable,” but unfortantely these situations are becoming far too common.
