Beginning June 1st, face coverings will be required in Coconino County court buildings to reduce exposure and the spread of COVID-19.
County officials say they do not have the funding to provide face coverings to everyone in the courts. As a result, individuals without face coverings may be turned away and denied entry unless they bring their own. Individuals may need to appear remotely at court proceedings.
As the county expands in-person visits coming out of Arizona's stay-at-home order, staff will wear personal protective equipment in certain situations. The court will also screen for illness as a matter of publi
c safety. Arizona courts are authorized to prohibit entry by those who do not meet screening requirements.
