This bill requires New York's Department of Health to develop rules and guidelines for all state courts to protect court employees and the public from spreading COVID-19. Key provisions mandate protective barriers at locations like the judge's bench and jury box, social distancing standards, face covering requirements, testing for court staff after a positive case is identified, and quarantine protocols for infected employees until they test negative. These rules must be implemented immediately across every court in New York. The bill directly affects court operations and the safety of everyone entering court facilities.
