| Court Security Officers maintain security and order for those courts
held in County facilities. These include Family Court, County Court, Supreme
Court and Surrogate Courts, as well as all Grand Jury proceedings.
Security personnel scan all persons entering any court area, using a
walk through metal detector at two locations and hand held metal
detectors at all other facilities. Security ensures the safety of
Judges, Attorneys, Plaintiffs, Defendants, Witnesses, Court personnel
and any others present in court. Court Security
Officers determine that all parties to an action are present and call
the cases. They check the courtrooms prior to the daily activities to
make sure the area is safe, and secure the area again when court is
through. Court Officers assist the Judges with various tasks and during jury
trials, they assist the jury when required. There are presently eighteen
individuals assigned to the Court Security Division. |
