The phone and email network at Hall County Courts facilities has been restored. Court officials said service was restored around noon Monday.
Original story Monday, Aug. 31 10:40 a.m.
Visitors to Hall County Courts facilities may find delays in service on Monday, according to Court Administrator Jason Stephenson.
The issue apparently arose after utility upgrades were made by the city of Gainesville over the weekend.
"County officials are working to restore access as quickly as possible, but phones and emails are not yet back online," Stephenson said.
The network outage impacts the Clerk of Court, Treatment Services, Pretrial Services and Hall County Probation. Juvenile Court hearings have been delayed, and Stephenson said those proceedings will be rescheduled. Any persons involved in those hearings would be notified by the court of new hearing dates.
"All offices are open, however some services may be delayed until network access is restored later today," Stephenson said.
