Mississippi Supreme Court Chief Justice Mike Randolph is extending an emergency order to keep COVID-19 precautions in place in the state’s courts. Randolph’s order allows judges to postpone jury trials through Oct. 8. It says courts may continue using teleconferences, video conferences and electronic filing. They may also continue using interactive audiovisual equipment to conduct remote hearings for pleas or sentencing in felony cases and for hearings on probation violations.
