Operations Update

The Newmarket courthouse (and those across the Province) continue to work remotely with no scheduled physical reopening date in site. Matters continue to be conducted remotely, including bails, judicial pretrials and now resolutions less than 30 minutes in duration, primarily by participants calling in at scheduled times by telephone.

There are ongoing discussions with all stakeholders with respect to expanding operations but at this time entirely on a remote basis. And currently there are no trial dates are being set for any matters. Consideration is being given on potentially conducting aspects of trials remotely, but there is no concrete plan as yet. More is anticipated shortly.
