Many N.J. courts to close June 29 for furloughs

Many New Jersey courts and related offices will be closed June 29 as judiciary employees are furloughed for one day.

Municipal courts are not affected. The closings will affect the state Supreme Court, Appellate Division courts, Superior Court in each county, and Tax Court, according to the state judiciary. Also closed will be county probation offices and all business offices where the public files court papers or makes payments to the courts.

This is the second of two furloughs imposed to save money. A full list of closings can be found at www.judiciary.state.nj.us/
