Can I bring a Swiss army knife or similar type instrument into the Court building? How about a camera or recording equipment?
No. Upon entering the Courthouse, you will have to pass through security, which includes clearing a metal detector as well as an X-ray machine. Items such as Swiss Army Knives, pocketknives, scissors, metal craft needles, cameras and recording equipment are not permitted in the Courthouse. Without exception, Court Security staff will confiscate these items. Weapons will not be returned. Please note that you may bring a mobile phone into the building; however, you are not permitted to use the phone’s camera function on the premises.
