Flooding Closes Broward County Courthouse

FORT LAUDERDALE (CBS4) ― Court will not be in session at Broward County's main courthouse Monday or Tuesday.  It's closed due to a water main break that flooded the first two floors of the building.

The sheriff's office says that as a result of Sunday night's flooding, most of the courthouse's phones and computers are down. The clerk of the court offices are also affected. The courthouse will be closed on Monday and Tuesday. There is no jury duty.

Computers used for emergency bond hearings were still working as of midnight, however, so the video conferences between inmates and judges are expected to go forward as planned.
