Federal Courts

Nice courthouse. Just don’t bring anything that you wouldn’t want to have taken away: a knife, firecrackers, you know, stupid things.
They won’t let you bring in your cell phone, but you can check it with the Marshals once you get past security.
The clerk’s office is on the main floor right past the elevator bank. If you’re filing a complaint, as you enter, make the first right. They take all major credit cards, cash or checks.
On Thursday from 9 AM to noon they issue attorney passes. If you don’t want to wait on line, this is the way to skip it.
There is a second entrance to the courthouse on Worth Street. If the line is long on the Pearl Street entrance, walk around. This entrance is almost never used.
Oh. Remember. They are Marshalls, not officers.
