Judicial officials in Iredell County plan to resume most normal operations for District and Superior Courts effective Tuesday, January 19, Clerk of Superior Court Jim Mixson said.

Most in-person court proceedings had been suspended since December 14 as a result of directives of the chief justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court; however, those directives have expired.

To help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and protect the public and staff, only people with business at the courthouse will be allowed to enter, Mixson said. Masks or face coverings are required, and social distancing must be observed.

Parties who are represented by an attorney should contact their attorney for scheduling information. Individuals may also visit www.nccourts.gov/services for new court dates.
