My management team and I are continuously monitoring information related to COVID-19 and coordinating with the Arizona Supreme Court, County Management, County Health and Human Services and other departments when appropriate.

In response to concerns for the health and safety of our community, court staff, and its judiciary, and through the mandates outlined in Arizona Supreme Court Administrative Order 2020-47, we are taking the following actions:

Information for those attending court, visiting the courthouse or its court agencies: 

• Arizona Courts remain open
• To reduce the number of visitors to our courthouses while safeguarding individuals’ access to justice and constitution rights, we are currently encouraging individuals who have a court case scheduled to contact the appropriate court or division to request a telephonic and/or video appearance when possible. Please be advised that every judge has the authority to order any hearing to be conducted by phone regardless of a party’s desire to appear in person.
• Jury Duty service for all courts in Coconino County has been suspended until April 17^th, 2020.
• In addition, those individuals who owe court fines and fees are encouraged to use the following payment methods:
  • mail in payments
  • make payments online at (https://wmq.etimspayments.com/pbw/include/arizona/newinput.jsp)
  • make a payment through PayNearMe.
  • if you are unable to pay due to financial hardship COVID-19 has caused, please contact the court in which you owe fines and fees and the court will work out a plan with you.

We encourage you to stay informed by visiting the following websites:

The Superior Court will continue to work with local government, health departments and the Arizona Supreme Court to ensure we are taking the necessary steps in response to the virus. Superior Court leadership will continue to monitor the situation while providing access to justice and service to the public.

Beginning June 1, 2021 masks will be optional for the public, judges, staff and all who enter Coconino County Superior Courthouse, Coconino County Justice Courts and Municipal Courts buildings.  However, masks or other face coverings are recommended to be worn by those who have not been fully vaccinated while in court buildings.

The Court is requesting all jurors reporting for jury service and/or serving on a jury consider wearing a mask or face covering during their jury service.
