NI: Dungannon and Craigavon courts remain closed

Dungannon Crown Court and Craigavon Crown Court are closed this morning due to the extreme weather of recent days.

Lisburn Youth Court, due to sit at Lisburn Courthouse today, has also been adjourned.

It follows yesterday’s day of disruption, in which plans to keep all of Northern Ireland’s courthouses open were eventually abandoned in favour of closing the Newtownards, Lisburn, Craigavon, Armagh, Newry and Downpatrick courthouses out of safety concerns.

All courts south of the border were closed yesterday and many remain closed today, according to the courts.ie website.
