Private Attorney Expedited Entry

Private Attorneys may use their California State Bar card and a government-issued photo ID for expedited courthouse entry.

This is defined as walking through the magnetometers and being subject to a full security screening.  This will include the use of x-ray machines to search all purses, bags, briefcases, boxes, and any personal effects.  Where x-ray machines are not available court security will physically search these items.

In locations where it is feasible, a separate line or entrance will be designated for attorneys with a valid California State Bar card and a government-issued photo ID.  In locations where attorneys must enter with the public, front of the line access will be given for expedited screening.  Persons with oversized belt buckles or buckles that are not business professional will be asked to remove the belt prior to screening.

If you do not present a current California State Bar card and a government-issued photo ID, you will be required to enter the building with the general public and be subject to the same full screening that members of the public are subject to pursuant to court and county policy.

The Sheriff's Department has the right to determine if additional screening is needed.
