LASC Mandates Face Coverings, Distancing

Presiding Judge Kevin C. Brazile has signed a General Order mandating facial coverings and social distancing requirements in all of Los Angeles County’s 38 Superior Court courthouses and courtrooms. The Order allows individuals whose disabilities preclude them from wearing a mask to seek an exemption as a reasonable accommodation pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or Rule 1.100 of the California Rules of Court. Requests for an exemption to the Order may be directed to the ADA liaison at each courthouse. A list of liaisons is available at www.lacourt.org/ada/adahome.aspx.
