Court Closings, Inclement Weather, Holidays

Court Closings

Court closings necessary due to inclement weather or other concerns are communicated on Chesterfield.gov and through local media. Because media updates rely on third parties, updates on Chesterfield.gov are the most accurate. Announcements regarding closings/delayed openings for Chesterfield County government offices do not apply to the Courts or Clerk’s Offices.
