Administrative Order 2020-8:
Several personnel employed in the Pahrump Justice Court have been exposed to a person who very recently tested positive for COVID-19, and the Court has therefore determined that it is necessary to close its office, effective July 7, 2020, pending test results of all Justice Court staff, which shall be conducted on July 8, 2020. In the interim, the Court will continue to conduct first appearances, bail hearings, and formal arraignments with all parties and counsel appearing by telephone or video only.
No hearings will be conducted at the courthouse, and no individuals will be permitted to enter the Pahrump Justice Court during this closure. The Court will continue to monitor this situation during the closure, but anticipates re-opening the office once staff members have tested negative for COVID-19.
