                 ATTORNEY "SECURE PASS" IDS

       In April 2002, the court system introduced a "Secure Pass" program that makes security pass IDs available to members of the Bar.  These passes will protect the security of our facilities and of all who work or conduct business in them while avoiding the inconvenience to attorneys, many of whom must make frequent appearances in our court, of having to pass through metal detectors upon each visit to the court.  For further information, click here.
