16th Judicial District Court Session Changes

16th Judicial District Judge Lewis Pitman tells KQKI News that Civil and Criminal Court sessions will go on as scheduled with the exception of criminal cases involving prisoners. The Department of Justice has informed the judges that they will not be transporting prisoners to court. Therefore, those cases have been postponed.
Pitman said he will have a conference with the other judges of the 16th Judicial District on Monday and will update us on the long-term plan. We will update the story once we receive additional information.
