Probate Courts strive to accommodate any person who requires access to court services and facilities. Probate judges often conduct hearings in hospitals and nursing homes to ensure the participation of the infirmed and elderly, especially when the person in the facility is the subject of the proceeding.

Request for Accommodation

A request for an accommodation can be made at any time. It is best, however, to make the request as far in advance as possible in order to allow time to review your request and to make arrangements for the accommodation, if needed. You should give a minimum of ten (10) days’ notice. In emergency situations, the ten-day requirement can be waived.
