Update to Court Operations at Devonshire Courthouse
Following flooding and water damage, remediation work at the Devonshire courthouse (3380 Devonshire Ave., Halifax) has continued. In-person matters have recommenced, and the Court Administration Office is now operational at its usual location on the lower level. Mail collection/drop-off remains on the main floor, as does the front counter for the Family Law Information Program (FLIP). Further updates will be provided.

Halifax Law Courts Fax Interruption
The fax line servicing the Court Administration office at the Halifax Law Courts is currently experiencing a service interruption. While this is being addressed, faxes can be sent to 902-424-8367.
