ST. JOSEPH — The Berrien County Trial Court building in St. Joseph will temporarily close its regular public entrance for renovations starting Monday, Oct. 20, according to a news release. The project is expected to last approximately two weeks.

During the renovation period, the public must use a temporary entrance located on the west side of the courthouse, just south of the regular entrance. All patrons will be required to go through the security checkpoint at this temporary location.

Signs will be posted to direct people to the new entrance and exit points both inside and outside the courthouse.

This renovation project affects only the St. Joseph courthouse; the Niles courthouse entrance remains fully operational. Separate entry and exit instructions will be provided for St. Joseph courthouse employees.
